Seahorses

Sea horses make up the genus Hippocampus in the family Syngnathidae. The common sea horse is classified as Hippocampus hudsonius.

Yes, some people keep sea horses as pets. They are not easy animals to keep because they require good water quality, constant water flow and a special diet. If you want to keep seahorses as pets you should start by researching the care of other saltwater animals. The more you know about the species of animal you want to keep the better.

Seahorses are very slow. They only use their small dorsal fins to propel themselves through the water, steering with their pectoral fins. They mainly rely on camouflage for protection, by changing colors very fast, and staying still in the water. They may anchor themselves to a plant with their tails. Their spiny armor is also an important defense.

A seahorse is a fish. There are 54 species of these small marine fishes in the genus Hippocampus.

A sea horse is a vertibrate (under the category FISH)

Yes. Seahorses are able to change colour using chromatophores, tiny organs in their skin which are a bit like elastic bags that hold dense pigment, and which can be expanded to highlight a particular colour. Apart from this ability, there are some species in which individuals can have a natural purple hue.

Seahorses are thought to be a type of pipefish, which have been around for millions of years. Pipefish look a lot like seahorses, but have straighter bodies.

They are cold blooded hope this answers your questions

Whale sharks, like all vertebrates, have bilateral symmetry. This means they have symmetry across one plane (known as the sagittal plane, and directly down the centre of their body), which means one side of their body approximately mirrors the other side.

Because some seahorses are getting killed and being displayed in hotels and other places .Humans kill the seahorses because they want to get money by killing seahorses

They live in water--as they're a type of fish--so they need as much water as an aquarium or an ocean can hold. The type of water for them is sea salt water, not fresh water.

The Sea horses predators are humans at fish that eat all under water creatures

the 73 in the number is the year

it increases the biodiversity of the species

yes, a seahorse a vegetarian.

No they are not vegetarian, they are classified as 'ambush predators' and in the wild only eat live food such as shrimps, small fish and plankton.

Some animals have tiny hair

no. there is no gravity on the moon or very little of it. that's why astronauts have to be linked to their space shuttle when they make space walks.

you're welcome (:

The seahorse's life cycle starts anew when a male and female start a courting ritual. The female eventually deposits eggs via an oviduct into the male's pouch, and he fertilizes the eggs. The eggs develop inside his pouch, and eventually he gives birth to well-formed fry. The fry continue to grow until they become adults.

Seahorse pregnancies doesn't compare well to how other animals work.

It's the female who make the eggs, but she deposits them in a pouch on the male seahorse's stomach for him to fertilize and then carry while the eggs develop.

When the eggs hatch, the pouch opens, and tiny, tiny sea horses swim out to start their own lives.

Seahorses are a kind of fish (Hippocampus) that likes shallow tropical and temperate waters all over the world. They don't swim well, so they like living in sheltered areas with lots of seaweed and grasses. They also like coral reefs and mangroves. They can change their colors to blend in or to attract other seahorses. They are closely related to pipefish and leafy sea dragons.

Basically little insects or somethign smaller than it

Seahorses live in water so they need enough water to swim in freely.

No. They are animals and animals do not talk, but they do communicate with one another.
