Dragonface Pipefish(Corythoichthys intestinalis), 3.5"-4.75"
Description
The Dragonface Pipefish is a unique looking fish that will bring a lot of attention to your aquarium. They have an almost prehistoric looking face that is bond to impress. This Pipefish is considered a better swimmer than most seahorses but it is still best to keep them in low and gentle flow. Be very careful when picking out tank mates! It is best to add these Pipefish to a Seahorse aquarium, with docile bottom dwellers or Firefish. Feeding these little guys may also create a challenge since their mouths are so small. Try feeding our Nutramar Tigrio Copepods to these pipefish until they can be weaned onto very small frozen prepared foods. You can keep these docile fish in a group as long as the aquarium is large enough. The Dragonface Pipefish can grow to be about 7" in length.
