30 May 2009 Seahorse fry (aka babies)
 |  Category: Coral Reef Tank  | Tags: ,

Here are a few pictures we took of a batch of fry when we were raising seahorses in one of our many saltwater aquariums (if you don’t ask how many is *many* I won’t have to expose how nuts we really were).  No much to really scale the size to, think the container is 1/2 gallon, but these cute little guys were 2-3mm from head to tail in length.  We tried to count but got lost after 100 or so, all from a single birth, the poor Dad!  Fellas next time you think you have it rough, just think of what this guy went through toting these critters around!

Species: Hippocampus kellogi
