Seahorse life-cycle. The male seahorse is equipped with a brood pouch on the ventral, or front-facing, side of the tail. When mating, the female seahorse deposits up to 1,500 eggs in the male's pouch. The male carries the eggs for 9 to 45 days until the seahorses emerge fully developed, but very small. The young are then released into the water ...
Adult seahorses eat 30 to 50 times a day if food is available; due to their slow consumption they must feed constantly to survive.

Their snouts can expand if the prey is larger ...
