Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
Tiny and delicate, pygmy seahorses survive by attaching to vibrant corals where they become nearly invisible to both predators and researchers. Now, biologists at the California Academy of Sciences have successfully bred them in captivity for the first time. Finally, they're able to study the seahorses' amazing act of camouflage up close

I still remember, years ago, i had diving leisure trips in philippines, malapascua to be exact, during one of the dive, the dive master pulled put one magnifying glass in front of this coral. I did not understand what he wanted to do, and finally he pointed to me to look at the coral. I hover around the coral did not know what to do and decided to have a look at the coral. After sometimes, i noticed the coral started to move and then i realized it was not a coral. The cutest thing ever

Nature, Life, it's absolutely amazing, so beautiful in all it's forms, always striving for perfection and equilibrium, although if we ever reach a time of total equilibrium, and perfection that's the end of evolution.
Like the tiny chameleons living in the undergrowth, the tiny seas horse has everything much larger marine species have, but in a Mich smaller package, 2-cm's and the tiny chameleons like the Brookesia Micra species, that can stand on a match head. Bloody awesome.

Just so amazing these little creatures of the sea. I am in wonder at these miniature Sea Horses. The entire life cycle with them mating and producing young was spectacular. The hard work and expertise of these individuals in bringing us this great video is greatly appreciated. This is now one of my favorite Nature videos.

How can they produce the colors corresponding to the thing they are on, that must be really advanced. Flamingos get pink by eating pink stuff, that seems logical, but just producing any color you are close to seems really advanced.

Male n female seahorses mating peacefully in their colorful houses under 80 feet depth water
Us: let's take them to the lab to change the color of their babies

Perhaps the scientists broke up a family by separating the sea horses and putting them on different fans lol they probably would never sea eachother again

applying a concept like identity to a sea horse is like saying a soldier in camo has a fluid identity. Seahorses have no no need for such a concept.

no such thing as fixed or mostly fixed or tend to think that or identity etc, cepuxuax, think, do, be, can think, do, be any nmw and any s perfect

Ah the Pygmy Seahorse the smallest species of seahorse in the world they hide and blend in coral sea fans depending on the colors.

fascinating. has anyone experimented with changing out the coral with a different color to see if the seahorses can adapt?
