Brazilian Batfish (Ogcocephalus vespertilio) - Marine fish

$Spiny Waspfish Ablabys macracanthus occurs in the tropical Eastern Indian Ocean in the Andaman Sea (Myanmar and Thailand) and in the Western Pacific Ocean in a depth range from 1 to 20m, max. length 20cm. \nThe species is encountered inshore, usually in muddy-sand habitat, estuaries and coastal slopes. Mimicking dead leaves and other debris, Ablabys macracanthus sways back and forth with current surge. That's exactly what this specimen does. \nLembeh Strait, North Sulawesi, Indonesia\n1°28'22.558 N 125°14'3.890 E at 15m depth$

A Striated, or Hairy frogfish sits in the dark waiting to ambush prey in Lembeh Strait, Indonesia. This well-camouflaged fish is rarely seen because it blends into its surroundings so well.

The juvenile Circular Spadefish (Platax orbicularis) has a distinctive and unique appearance compared to its adult form. Its body is disc-shaped and mimicking a leaf, with a black patch behind its eye and a yellowish-orange tail. As it grows, its body becomes more elongated and its coloration changes, developing black stripes on its sides and a yellowish-white body. Despite its unusual appearance, the juvenile Circular Spadefish is a popular sight in tropical waters and can often be found swimming in small schools near coral reefs.

$Tasselled Wobbegong Eucrossorhinus dasypogon occurs in Eastern Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and Northern Australia. This ovoviviparous species can reach more than 3.5m length, common length is less than 2m. The tough skin is used sometimes for leather. \nTasselled Wobbegong is threatened by extensive coral reef habitat destruction (pollution and dynamite fishing), as well as expanding fisheries. A considerable section of its habitat is protected in the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park. \nThe species is primarily nocturnal. Usually, by burrowing into the sand and with sand on its fins, the sharks outline becomes almost completely invisible to prey. This specimen was encountered at 4m depth during night time just when leaving the bottom. The scare at the pectoral fin of this specimen is distinctive.\nTriton Bay, Kaimana Regency, Indonesia, 3°56'17.7941 S 134°7'10.2802 E at 4m depth$

$Weedy Scorpionfish Rhinopias frondosa occurs in the tropical Indo-West Pacific from South Africa (off Durban) east to southern Japan, the Caroline Islands, and eastern Australia in a depth range from 10 to 297m, max. length 23cm. \nThe colour can range from yellow and lavender to dark red and purple. Like most Scorpaenidae, Weedy Scorpionfish are mostly nocturnal ambush hunters, using their camouflage to prey on unsuspecting fish and invertebrates. They rarely swim (they do not have a swim bladder!), but rather move along the bottom propelling themselves with their fins. \nThis specimen was encountered in the Lembeh Strait, Indonesia \n1°25'51.21 N 125°11'5.142 E at 30m depth\n\nN.B. \nThe deep blue background is a mix of the low color temperature of the lamp and the underexposure of some areas. There was no color temperature change with Photoshop.$
