Microphis brachyurus is a freshwater pipefish distributed across the Indo-Pacific and West African coastal regions, making it one of the very few syngnathids that inhabit fresh water for part or all of their lives. Like marine pipefish, males brood the eggs on a ventral pouch. It is a highly specialised feeder requiring live or freshly thawed copepods, baby brine shrimp, and small invertebrates.
