Jellyfish Fields
The Leafy Seadragon
I discovered these incredibly fascinating creatures at the Florida Aquarium in Tampa, Florida. Here’s some information:
“Much like the seahorse, the leafy seadragon’s name is derived from its resemblance to another creature (in this case, the mythical dragon). While not large, they are slightly larger than most seahorses, growing to about 20–24 cm (8–10 in). They feed on plankton and small crustaceans.”
