Reproductive performance of seahorse, Hippocampus barbouri (Jordan and Richardson 1908) in control condition

Hippocampus barbouri is one of the seahorse species found in shallow water of Malaysia. It is used as known as a global trade species in ornamental fish industry. To date, there is no documented report on seahorse aquaculture especially for H. barbouri in Malaysia even in Southeast Asia region. Seah...
