FIJI FANGBLENNY
This blenny mimics cleaner wrasses and feeds by
darting at unwary fishes to nip off scales and skin. It is uncommon
on reefs in clear water at scuba depths. The body tapers from head
to tail, unlike the more robust
Canary Fangblenny. Attains 2.75 inches.
Restricted to Fiji & Tonga. |
