More about the Seahorse can be found on the internet or in a library when looking for a multi-cache.
The Seahorse belongs to the same family as pipe fishes and sea dragons. There are 35 different species of seahorse which can be found in warm shallow waters all over the world. The head of the seahorse resembles a horse’s head and its body has an elongated tail covered by about 50 rectangular bony plates. ‘Hippocampus’ is the scientific name for the seahorse and it means ‘bent horse’ in Greek.
Seahorses range in size from 16 millimeters (the recently discovered Hippocampus denise) to 35 centimeters. Seahorses are notable for being the only species where the male seahorses become pregnant.
The seahorse is a true fish, with a dorsal fin located on the lower body and pectoral fins located on the head near their gills. Some species of seahorse are partly transparent, and are often not spotted in aquariums despite being there and are also not often seen in pictures.
