It is hard to believe that the sea horse is a fish, but it is. They can change their color to hide from their enemies. Sea horses are very shy and peaceful creatures.
A Sea horse has a long tail and a long nose. It has a big tummy and its head looks like a horses head. A seahorse has a see through fin. The male seahorse has pouch so the female and male can have babies. They dance side by side and then the female pushes the eggs into the pouch. And when the babies are ready they push themselves out and they hang on to what ever is near them.
A seahorse eats tiny animals called plankton and zooplankton. It catches them by opening its mouth and closing its mouth.
A seahorse lives in the coral reef and in the shallow waters of the reef. They feed almost all the day! They have small black eyes and are very sensitive and can get hurt very easily.
Sea horses are very cute and small.

Hi Lily
ReplyDeleteThanks for the interesting info about seahorses - something new for me to learn too! They must be very clever to be able to change colours to hide - and also very hungry to eat all day. :)
Can't wait for your next blog
