Firefish — size comparison — facts and sources

The firefish has a pale front, red rear and very tall first dorsal fin. It inhabits Indo-Pacific reefs, usually near sand, rubble and substrate holes.

Hovering above the bottom facing the current, it picks zooplankton from passing water, including copepods and crustacean larvae. Adults often pair. They stay near shelter and retreat into it rapidly when threatened.
