A pipefish among the seagrass
This marine-life page shows a pipefish positioned vertically between tall seagrass blades. Its narrow body and tube-shaped snout make it easy to distinguish from more familiar fish. The surrounding meadow reflects the sheltered coastal habitat used by many pipefish species.
Hiding in a living meadow
Pipefish are close relatives of seahorses and often rely on camouflage rather than speed. Their slim bodies can resemble seagrass blades, especially when they hold themselves upright and sway with the water. Seagrass meadows also contain tiny crustaceans and other small animals that pipefish can eat.
