They're both pretty much the same except for shape, so why do pipefish thrive in 80 degree water and not seahorses/why does vibrio affect seahorses much more than pipefish?
Is it because pipefish aren't captive-bred and come straight from the tropical ocean and seahorses, generally being captive-bred, have adapted to cooler temperatures?
Or maybe wild caught pipefish and seahorses just have stronger immune systems from being exposed to vibrio?
Anyone know?
