Pygmy Seahorse Info
"The pygmy seahorse is both tiny and well camouflaged. It is very difficult to spot amongst the sea grasses, soft corals, or gorgonians (sea fans) that it inhabits. Other distinctive pygmy seahorse characteristics include a fleshy head and body, a very short snout, and a long, prehensile tail."

Wow, the thing looks just like the coral its attached to. Very cool.
Ah yes,but the writer is forgetting one very critical word here..Cute. I'd go so far as to say it's the cutest sea horse of the lot. By the way,the Baltimore Aquarium has a whole floor dedicated to these amazing critters.
That looks like a microscopic image of something that could be living inside me.
