About Trachyrhamphus bicoarctatus (Bleeker, 1857)
Trachyrhamphus bicoarctatus, commonly called the double-ended pipefish, is a species of marine fish in the family Syngnathidae. This pipefish inhabits reefs, seagrass beds, and sandy habitats across the Indo-Pacific region, ranging from East Africa to New Caledonia, and from Japan to Australia. Males of the species reach sexual maturity at roughly 26 centimeters in length, while fully grown adults can grow up to 40 centimeters long. The species reproduces via ovoviviparity: males brood the eggs and give birth to live young.
