CANARY FANGBLENNY
This blenny mimics cleaner wrasses and feeds by
darting at unwary fishes to nip off scales and skin. It is quite
common
on shallow reefs in small groups. The body is tallest behind the
head with a curved outline unlike the slender
Fiji Fangblenny. Attains 4 inches. Endemic to Fiji. |
