The Yellow Seahorse


Also known as the "Common Seahorse," this species is native to the Indo-Pacific.
#   The Yellow Seahorse can reach a length of 17-30cm.
#   The colouration is often dark with a grainy texture but can also be yellow, cream or reddish with blotches and numerous small dark spots.
#   This seahorse has a carnivorous diet and feeds on small crustaceans and other planktonic organisms.
#   It is the male who broods the eggs in its ventral brood pouch (like all seahorse species). The young (called pups) exit the pouch once full grown, and from then on live antonomously.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE !
