Time for a quick biology lesson 🧑🔬
The Pygmy Seahorse is a master of disguise, able to mirror the textures and colours of the coral they live in 🪸 Since these seahorses are too small to fend off predators, they change colour to mimic their environment and become almost invisible! 😮
Did you know that these guys often spend their entire lives in one particular coral? 🌊🐚
