$Coral Siphonfish Siphamia corallicola occurs in the tropical Western Central Pacific from the Philippines and Malaysia south to Indonesia and Papua New Guinea in a depth range from 6 to 22m in sheltered waters of lagoons and coastal inlets, max. length 31mm. \nThe species probably occurs widely in the Indo-Malay and Melanesian archipelagos but has thus far escaped detection because of its small size and cryptic behavior. \nGroups of up to 40 individuals may hover above or shelter within branching corals and among sponges in protected bays (Lembeh Strait is very protected).\nSiphamia corallicola is bioluminescent, forming symbiosis with Photobacterium mandapamensis. The males are mouthbrooders. \nThis specimen is a mouthbrooding male. On full resolution of the photo some eggs are visible. It was encountered in Dendronephthya Soft Coral in the Lembeh Strait, North Sulawesi, Indonesia \n1°27'15.488 N 125°13'25.575 E at 22m depth$

The Reef Lizardfish (Synodus variegatus) is a carnivorous fish commonly found in coral reefs and shallow waters in the Indo-Pacific region. It has a slender body and a large head with a wide mouth filled with sharp teeth, making it a fierce predator of small fish and crustaceans. The lizardfish's body is typically colored in shades of brown or gray, allowing it to blend seamlessly into its surroundings and ambush unsuspecting prey. Despite its fearsome appearance, the Reef Lizardfish is an important part of the coral reef ecosystem and plays a crucial role in maintaining the balance of the food chain.
