All about Seahorses

Seahorses are small fish with a horse-shaped head and a curled tail that they use to hold onto plants. Unlike most fish, seahorses swim upright. They feed by sucking in tiny creatures from the water with their long snouts.

In seahorses, the male carries the eggs in a pouch until they hatch. The male then gives birth to the young. Seahorses are slow swimmers, so they rely on camouflage to hide from predators.
