I remember a number of years ago, 8 maybe, I got to go behind the scenes at Birch aquarium, and they had just received 4 leafy sea dragons.
They were stuck floating at the surface, they figured there was air trapped in their stomach's, so they were using a hypo to inject and remove that air.
I remember they were a bit stressed as the price on those came in at $4,000 a piece!
They did survive
