Seahorses will court one another for several days before mating. When they mate, the female deposits up to 1,500 eggs into the males pouch located on one side of the body. The male then carries the eggs for up to 45 days and the babies come out of the pouch fully developed. Once they leave the pouch the baby seahorses are on their own.

The female seahorse lays its eggs in the Male's pouch where the eggs are fertilised and is where the eggs grow. The male "gives birth" to the tiny seahorses a few days later, and the babies are completely independent from the male who may choose to see them as food.

Seahorses reproduce through eggs which are carried by the male in a pouch until they hatch.
