If it is algae, I've had that happen before too & it never hurt the seahorse. A lawnmower blenny will suck down stuff like that but the seahorses really hate that kinda loving attention :evil: The main reason my 4" blenny is in exile in the 20g.

My H. whitei would get algae on their backs. I gently blew it off with a turkey baster. Make sure you do it when you first notice the algae, otherwise it might be hard to get off.
