Sea Horses

Answer 3

Yes it is legal to keep sea horses in the UK. But the reason you do not see them often is because they are not the easiest to keep. I suggest you think carefully before you decide to keep them. Did you know that they must be fed eight times a day?
If you look up www.hobbyfish.co.uk i believe it is they can obtain them also Maidenhead Aquatics can.

Answer 4

If you live in Devon and ever go to Exmouth beach, in the rock pools (in the summer) you will see very small sea horses, i have caught a few, but let them go as i feel that it is cruel to keep them, they should be left in their natural habitat like all wild life should, you will find them in most pet shops that have aquariums, but if you look at them, you can see the bad condition they are in.

Answer 5

You can buy them just check on you're local aquarium/pet shop
