Blackfin Squirrelfish

Found singly or in small schools, over sub-tidal reef flats, lagoons, and seaward reefs, rich in coral growth.
They feed nocturnally on benthic crabs and shrimps.

Squirrelfish are nocturnal hunters feeding near the bottom on small fish and swimming crustaceans. During the day they often congregate close to reefs and in caves, sometimes found upside down in caves.
Their colour can change greatly in different lights and if threatened.
Some of this family have venomous spines.
