Filefish
or Leatherjacket Family Monacanthidae This filefish is probably trying to match the surrounding sand. Large filefishes often remain flat and still against coral rubble or the sand to avoid detection. At the last moment, they may dash away with a lot of splashing to stir up the water so they can make a getaway in the murky water. |
