Creature Highlights
Tropical Seahorse
Found across Southeast Asia, the Tropical Seahorse blends into seagrass and corals. Males carry the eggs in their brood pouches until tiny seahorses are ready to hatch.
Longsnout Seahorse
With its slender snout and vibrant colours, the Longsnout Seahorse feeds by quickly sucking tiny shrimp into its tube-like mouth.
Big Belly Seahorse
One of the largest seahorse species, the Big Belly Seahorse is known for its round belly and calm movements. It uses its strong tail to hold onto plants and rocks.
Seahorse Camouflage
Seahorses are masters of disguise, changing shades to blend into seagrass and coral. This camouflage keeps them safe from predators.
