Maximum length: 7.5 cm

Depth: 2 - 110 m

Due to its dark coloration and sinuous swimming style,

this fish species looks like a whirlpool worm or small eel at first glance.

Very difficult to photograph as it is very shy and, like this one,

lives in a very small hole in the reef.

Every time I illuminated it with the lamp, it disappeared deeper into its burrow.

But still interesting to photograph, but you need good buoyancy control,

for example I lay there floating for a good 10 minutes to catch it, bad photo, but got it.
