Abstract
Seahorse is a unique bony fish, which has appearance male pregnancy. Seahorses also have properties that are very effective in treating the potential of deadly antimicrobial attacks. Therefore, the traditional system of consuming seahorses, because of overfishing, causing the population to become extinct. Seahorses are rare animals and only found in certain regions. All of Hippocampus are listed species under Appendix II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). which is intended as a sea horses export must be obeyed by countries that have signed CITES. Another effort that can be done is by developing cultivation. To support these activities, it is necessary to provide seahorses in bulk and not depending on the season. In other words, the procurement of juwana must be programmed so that they can be produced on time, the right type, the right quality and quantity and also the exact location. These criterias can only be obtained from hatchery activities. Seahorses hatchery is still very new and not developed yet, especially in Indonesia. In addition, information on reproductive biology aspects is also very limited, so more in-depth research is needed.
