I want to help in the only small way I could. I'd love to give a few seahorses a good home. I'm pretty good with animals, and fish. and my family is memorized by these little guys. I favor the leafy sea dragon, but I like em all.

If you've ever smelled one they're not too appetizing furthermore they can Harbor different species of vibro that should keep your tonsils nice and squeaky I seriously doubt that they taste like chicken 😃chicken of the sea !
LOL leave it to people to try to make some ridiculous thing into medicine when it's not medicinable... okay

Selling them for chinese medicine should be outlawed in the United States and every civilized country in the world. Give hefty fines plus long prison time for selling them for this purpose.
