Ocellated Waspfish

Found singly over soft sandy bottoms, burying itself during the day, with just the eyes showing, out at night hunting for food, using their barbels to detect prey buried in the substrate, then using their fins to corner their prey
They feed nocturnally on small fish and shrimps.

The Ocellated Waspfish spreads its long pectoral fins/wings to deter predators.

Waspfish can be distinguished from the Leaf Fish that belongs to the Scorpionfish family, by the dorsal fins that begin above or in the front of the eyes.
Most species sway back and forth to mimic debris as they wait for their victims to venture close.
Extremely venomous.
