Sculpin

Description:

Small fish (1-5") with large head and pectoral fins. "It has large gills to let it extract the maximum amount of oxygen from a tidepool as the water warms and becomes oxygen depleted during low tides"

Habitat:

Tidepools: Fitzgerald Marine Reserve

Notes:

I was able to photograph this little guy who just happened to perch itself right on top of a rock near the water's surface.
