Originating from the coastal areas of the Indian Ocean and the Western Pacific, this seahorse is a true curiosity for marine fish enthusiasts. However, its care requires very specific conditions and a tank exclusively dedicated to this species.
Hippocampus comes is a peaceful and slow fish, never to be kept with overly lively or aggressive species. It prefers to live alone or in pairs. The presence of a calm environment, rich in attachment zones, is essential for its well-being.
Its behavior consists of attaching itself with its prehensile tail to elements of the decor, such as gorgonians or long algae. It spends a lot of time motionless, observing its environment or capturing passing micro-prey.
