Seahorse floating to surface

[chrislwp]

Noticed that my seahorse has been floating to water surface, seem like it cannot submerge..and it's struggling to grap something to hold. wonder what is the problem?

Either it has sucked in air by accident or if its a male there are air bubbles trapped in its pouch.

Any way to let the air out of it?
