Longsnout Seahorse Larva
Hippocampus reidi (larva)
Newly released larvae drift among plankton in coastal waters, where currents carry them away from the adult's territory. They hunt minute copepods and other tiny crustaceans with rapid suction strikes. Each larva is independent immediately after leaving its father's brood pouch.
