Great seahorse

The Great seahorse (Hippocampus kelloggi) is a marine fish characterized by its distinctive horse-like head and curled prehensile tail. This species typically exhibits a color range from yellow to reddish-brown, often with mottled patterns, facilitating camouflage in its natural habitat. It is native to the Indo-Pacific region, spanning from the central coast of Australia through Southeast Asia to southern Japan. Although not the most renowned species within the aquarium trade or hobby, it is recognized by enthusiasts for its size and unique appearance. Its conservation status and rarity in the wild make it less common in captivity compared to other seahorse species.
