The seahorses are raised in large tanks
A baby seahorse is called a fry. A group of seahorses is called a herd.
-Seahorses engage in an eight hour courtship dance which includes spinning around, swimming side by side and changing colors.
-When mating, the female seahorse releases up to 50 eggs into a pouch on the male’s abdomen.
-The male seahorse carries the eggs in his pouch until they hatch, then releases fully formed, miniature seahorses into the water. As few as 5 or as many as 1,500 young can be born.
