A male seahorse is a male seahorse.
The Latin name for seahorse is Hippocampus.
The female seahorse transfers her eggs to the male which he self-fertilises in his pouch.
Seahorse for one...
the male
No, she lays them in the water and the male gathers them up in his mouth and blows them into his pouch.
You don't really have to have a male seahorse if you have a female sea horse but if you want to have little baby sea horses you can have a male sea horse. If i were you i would want a male sea horse for company for the female.
The female seahorse has an ovipositor like most fish, and she passes the eggs to the male by inserting it into his pouch opening. This is done as the seahorse pair rises in the water column for the egg transfer.
It is the male seahorse that keeps the eggs in a special pouch, until the young are strong enough to hatch out.
seahorse
The female seahorse deposits her eggs in a pouch at the male seahorse's abdomen. He then carries them until they hatch.
the male seahorse gives birth instead of the female :D the female gives birth but the male carries the baby seahorses in a pouch at the front like a kangaroo XD
The Seahorse is often representative of the playful nature of people when they are around the sea. And as it is the male seahorse that raises & protects the young, it can be read as a protective male force (Father figure).
