Pygmy Seahorses. There are seven Species of Pygmy Seahorse. The Pygmy Seahorse is one of the smallest in the world (2 cm), they can be found in the Indo-West Pacific Ocean. The scientific name for Pygmy Seahorse is Hippocampus Bargibanti.
Pygmy Seahorses camouflage to survive. They will find a sea-fan-coral and change colour to match it, they also change texture.
When a baby seahorse is born it is brown. Before the baby(s) is born the parents do a courtship dance. The baby(s) are developed in the fathers brood pouch.
Pygmy Seahorses eat small crustaceans. They have the common predators of the sea, fish, sharks, industrial fishing (big nets), and climate change.
The coral reefs are being destroyed. This is the result of climate change and industrial fishing. The result of climate change is acidification, and rising temperatures. Industrial fishing nets smash the coral reefs and it isn't good.
