Genus

Common name: Brummer's Pipefish

Scientific name: Pseudechidna

Pseudechidna is a genus of fish in the family Syngnathidae, which includes pipefishes and seahorses. Members of this genus are characterized by their elongated bodies and tubular snouts, resembling a pipe, hence the name. They are fascinating additions to a reef aquarium due to their unique appearance and behavior. Pseudechidna species are generally peaceful and can be kept with other non-aggressive tank mates. They feed on small crustaceans and require live food in captivity, making their care more challenging than some other aquarium inhabitants.
