Seahorse skin is unique due to its tough, bony plates called dermal plates, which provide structural support and protection. Unlike typical fish scales, these plates are fused together and covered by a thin layer of skin, allowing for flexibility while maintaining durability. Seahorses also possess a network of chromatophores in their skin, enabling them to change color for camouflage and communication. This specialized skin contributes to their survival in various marine environments.
