Mike Bartick ID needed on this Pipefish...Found hiding in the same soft coral that it mimics..it isnt Siokunichthys nigrolineatus, but is certainly signathedae...anyone?

Carl-Johan Nilsson S herrei? http://www.uwphotographyguide.com/diving-arenui-komodo

Carl-Johan Nilsson Not sure if they id it right, very few pics of any of the S Genus online.

Carl-Johan Nilsson Another Xenia Pipefish, scroll down in article. http://fishid.com/marinelifeblog/october-in-indonesia/

Kati Burg What a great find! Where did you see you it? Yes, it looks like Syngnathidae. Could be Siokunichthys herrei (http://fishbase.sinica.edu.tw/Summary/SpeciesSummary.php?id=7190&lang=english). Not sure though.

Carl-Johan Nilsson Better upload pics to Worms and Fishbase Mike Bartick
