I bought a pregnant seahorse yesterday, and it's pretty stressed.
Apparently, it was shipped to the store, acclimated to their tanks, then removed and bagged a few hours later, brought to my house, and acclimated to my tanks, all in one day.
Right now, he's just hanging on to branches and not doing much swimming, and his entire body is completely covered in white spots. They almost look like pores in the seahorses body, and the spots follow the lines and patterns of its body.

Is this anything I need to be concerned about? Or is this a normal thing?
