Cool fish


Here one of my favorite fish, the Green Mandarin Goby. Synchiropus splendidus, is a marine ornamental fish often kept in home reef aquariums. He feeds almost exclusively on live copepods, and as such most fish keepers have a hard time keeping him alive. When he can be kept it is well worth it, for this is one unique and beautiful creature, often noted for its swimming pattern, which appear as “hovering” almost like a humming bird.

It doesn't hurt that he has Bear's colors. :)

That's one cool-looking fish.
