Video: Earth Touch Wild Oceans

This week on the Earth Touch Wild Oceans channel features a video filmed by Mark Thorpe of a tiny pipefish fighting the current. Each week the Wild Oceans channel features interesting videos of underwater creatures from around the world.

These extravagantly coloured creatures are pipefish! They spend most of their lives floating upside-down and using their long snouts to suck up tiny crustaceans. Watch as this strange-looking fish frantically fans its little fins against the surging water.
