The lacy scorpionfish is a small, strange-looking reef fish that lies still on the seabed and looks like weed or sponge. It lives in the western Pacific, and it is rare. Its camouflage makes it hard to spot, even for divers.1

It lives on coral slopes and soft seabed, at depths between 5 and 30 metres. It is a benthic fish, which means it rests on the bottom rather than swimming in open water.1

Its most typical prey is smaller fish. It ambushes them from the seabed, using camouflage and the quivering tentacles on its dorsal fin to lure them in.1

Ni ngay ko xàmmee

  • Two black spots sit in the membrane between the sixth and eighth rays of the dorsal fin.1
  • The dorsal fin spines are rigid, with strongly pointed tips.1
  • It has 12 to 18 tentacles under the lower jaw, 2 to 4 below the eyes, and many on the flanks above the lateral line.1
  • Long, branched tentacles grow on the supraocular and rear lacrimal spines.1
  • Adults have 16 or 17 pectoral-fin rays.1

Ñu ngi koy faral di jaxasoo ak: Three related species, R. argoliba, R. cea and R. xenops, lack the two black spots on the dorsal fin. R. eschmeyeri and R. frondosa have soft, fleshy fin membranes, while this species does not.1

Xibaar

1

It pumps water through tubes above its gill covers, which makes the tentacles on its dorsal fin quiver like swaying algae.1

2

Instead of swimming, it moves by "walking" and "hopping", powered by its pelvic and pectoral fins.1

3

It is very reluctant to leave the seafloor, and usually just lies on the bottom and rocks gently from side to side.1

4

It is a much sought-after fish in the aquarium trade.1
