I just got this from my lfs the other day. I have no clue what it is though. It has a body similar to a seahorse and a snout like a pipefish. Any Ideas? It hasnt eaten yet.

It looks like either a flying fish, or fish in the goby/blennie species. I relly have seen nothing like it. either way, it is one dang cool fish!

haha thanks. The lfs guy said that its the only one he has seen in about a year. Im not too sure how to get it eating though. I've tried live brine and frozen plankton and frozen brine with some vita chem in it but he still wont eat. any ideas? heres some more pics.
sorry. I know there not so great.

Thanks a lot!
I dont know I hope I have a good pod population but with 3 other seahorses and a banded pipefish I'm sure its on the low side.
I thought with a mouth like that he would pods too but I was told that about my pipefish and hes eating mysis
so who knows.
I dont really see him picking around a lot for pods though. he Just stays in one place or swims around like crazy.
