<p>Leafy Sea Dragon - male with eggs --- Very hard to find and photograph, these superbly camouflaged fishes are in the same family as seahorses and pipefishes,they are only found in Australia's temperate waters. This species has only been recorded from the southern coastline of Australia. Unlike seahorses, sea dragons do not have a pouch for rearing their young. Instead, the male carries the eggs fixed to the underside of his tail from where they eventually hatch. When male sea dragons are ready to receive eggs from the female, the lower half of the tail on the male appears wrinkled. During mating, females lay 100-250 eggs onto a special 'brood patch' on the underside of the male's tails, where they are attached and fertilized. The bright pink eggs become embedded in the cups of the brood patch, receiving oxygen via the cups' blood vessels. After a period of about 6-8 weeks from conception, the male 'gives birth' to miniature juvenile versions of sea dragons.</p>
