Yes, male seahorses and pipefish are unique among fish in that they are the ones that give birth. In pipefish, the female transfers her eggs to the male's brood pouch, where he fertilizes and carries them until they hatch. After a gestation period, the male releases fully formed miniature pipefish into the water. This reproductive role reversal is a fascinating aspect of their Biology.
