The Fu Manchu lionfish is a small, reddish-brown reef fish with two large dark spots on its back fin that look like eyes. It lives in warm, clear tropical seas across the Indo-West Pacific, mostly among coral. Its spines carry venom, so it is one to admire from a distance.1

Sihlala

Tropical Indo-West Pacific, from the Mascarene Islands, Maldives and Sri Lanka east to the Mariana and Tuamotu Islands, north to southern Japan and south to New Caledonia and Tonga1

Ekhaya

It shelters in caves and under ledges during the day, and lives on coral reefs with clear water at depths of 1 to 40 m. It is found in Australian waters at Scott Reef, Ashmore and Hibernia reefs, and Christmas Island.1

Ubude

Sitya ntoni?

It eats small fish and small crustaceans, such as shrimp. It hunts by stalking prey along the bottom or around reef structures, then makes a rapid lunge and swallows the prey whole.1

Amava anetyhefu

Amava abukhali aphethe ityhefu. Ukusinyathela okanye ukusibamba kubuhlungu.

Ityhefu yaso yokuluma okanye yokuhlaba yenza ntoni?

The fin spines are venomous, so a puncture from one injects venom.1

Ukuba amava aso ayakugwaza

Faka inxeba emanzini ashushu, ashushu kangangoko umntu angakwazi ukunyamezela ngaphandle kokutshiswa (wavavanye ngesandla sakho), imizuzu engama-30 ukuya kwengama-90. Fumana uncedo lwezonyango, ingakumbi kwii-stonefish nakwii-stingray.

Soloko utsalela inombolo kaxakeka kuqala (112, 000, 911). Esi sisikhokelo soncedo lokuqala ngokubanzi, asilocebiso lwezonyango. Iziseko zoncedo lokuqala

Hlala ukhuselekile

Ungaze uchukumise, ubambe okanye uqhule isilwanyana sasendle, nokuba sincinci, kwaye nokuba sibonakala silele okanye sifile.
Sinike indawo. Ukuba udibana naso, hlala uzolile, buyela umva kancinci kwaye usiyeke sihambe ngendlela yaso.
Ukuba amava aso ayakugwaza: hlala uzolile, musa ukushukuma, tsalela inombolo kaxakeka (112, 000, 911) okanye uye esibhedlele ngokukhawuleza. Khumbula ukuba sasikhangeleka njani, ifoto iyanceda.

Asikuzingeli. Sisebenzisa ityhefu yaso ukubamba ukutya okanye ukuzikhusela, kwaye singakhetha ukuzimela. Okungakumbi malunga nokuhlala ukhuselekile

kufanelekile ukwazi

Iinyaniso

Before feeding, it snaps its back fin spines and shakes its head from side to side as it approaches prey. This may distract the prey or possibly attract it.1

It may also use the fleshy tentacles on its upper jaw to lure prey within striking distance.1

It moves towards prey by 'hopping' on its pelvic fins or by waving its tail fin, until it is about half its body length away.1

It appears occasionally in the aquarium trade, where it is moderately difficult to keep and not suited to beginners.1

Umqhekezi weentsomi

Intsomi: It belongs to the genus Dendrochirus.

Inyaniso: Before 2023 it was classed in Dendrochirus, but it is now understood not to be particularly closely related to that genus.1
