Related to seahorses, Weedy Seadragons (Phyllopteryx taeniolatus) are only found in southern Australia - the largest and most colourful animals are found in southern Tasmania. These were filmed off the Tasman Peninsula, southeastern Tasmania. They live amongst kelp and other seaweeds, and feed on small crustaceans such as mysids which they suck up individually using their tube-like snout. Like seahorses, the male carries the eggs until they hatch. Filmed by Mick Baron. All footage and images in this vide
