Look twice and you might spot the broadnosed pipefish. Barely moving throughout their lifetime, the broadnosed pipefish tends to stay vertical amongst seagrass or seaweed, sucking in plankton through its mouth. Larger fish will predate on broadnosed pipefish - if they can see them! These masters of disguise are found in the seas from Vardø, Norway to Morocco.

Banded Pipefish Breeding/Reproductive Habits Similar to other seahorses and pipefishes, the male banded pipefish is equipped with a specialised brood pouch, rather than the female. The female deposits her eggs in the male's pouch, where they develop. The male later gives birth. VC: BBC | Tropical Indian Fishes
