Xanthogramma Sandperch

Found singly or in small schools, over gravel bottoms, between corals and reef patches, close to rock and rubble areas, of shallow seaward reefs.
Central Pacific - Fiji, Tonga, Western Samoa

Sandperches live in the sand under solid pieces of reef, a single dominant male lives with a small harem of females. Not a very shy fish, is happy to sit and watch the world go by!
