These seahorses are critically endangered and unfortunately there is very little of their natural habitat left (Posidonea Seagrass). Consequently these seahorses tend to reside on human/ man made structures such as swimming nets and pylons. This poses a serious issue as when these nets and structures need to be replaced, which is a natural part of their existence as they degrade in the ocean and eventually pose safety risks for humans, they will be ripped out of the ocean and replaced.
