One of 2 seahorses found in the UK, Long Snouted Seahorses are recognized by their longer snout and fleshy 'mane.'
# Also known as the "Spiny Seahorse", this seahorse is recognized by the fleshy mane on its neck and back
# They live in shallow coastal waters and are pretty poor swimmers, relying on their prehensile tail to cling onto seaweed and seagrass to stop from being swept away.
# They don't have teeth and simply suck up their favourite prey of small shrimp and plankton.
# The Long Snouted Seahorse is a small-sized fish that can reach a maximum length of 21.5cm but the average size is more or less 12cm.
# Its colour ranges from dark green to different variants of brown and yellow, the body is often speckled with small white dots.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE !
