Stripped eel Catfish

Plotosus lineatus

Description:

Watching these fish move over the sand is as they dig for food is fascinating. I always have to remind myself that the first dorsal and each pectoral fin has a highly venomous spine. They are usually found in groups of 20 to 100 depending on the size, but I have seen large ones by themselves

Habitat:

Coral Reef. Saw this school at Bethlehem
