    I've never seen a sea dragon, till date I was a huge fan of sea horses, from now on its the sea dragons. I totally agree with their description--simply spectacular. I got more interested and researched more about them. Found this awesome video--its a must watch!!! See the sea dragons dancing-- http://news.bbc.co.uk/earth/hi/earth_news/newsid_8330000/8330705.stm
