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

The Pipefish are literally "Hanging Out" over the Thorny Seahorses. You can hang out with them too now that Newport Aquarium has reopened for ALL guests! Remember, advance ticket purchase or Passholder reservations are required. Find everything you need to know before your next visit at NewportAquarium.com/PlaySafe. | Newport Aquarium

About a month ago, a male Long-mouth Freshwater Pipefish hatched a new brood of fry in our Rivers of the World gallery. Since then, these baby syngnathids have been steadily growing up in the safety of a home behind the scenes. They'll stay here until they've grown large enough to safely rejoin their parents in our Freshwater Pipefish exhibit. Until then, we're just going to be right over ... here ... watching and falling in love with them. Don't mind us. #babyanimals #pipefish #seahorses #aquar
