WEEDY SCORPIONFISH

Meet the Weedy Scorpionfish!

With an ability to blend seamlessly into its surroundings, this fish's specialized camouflage protects it from predators and helps it ambush prey.

The weedy scorpionfish is equipped with venomous spines, offering a lethal surprise to any predator that dares to come too close. Its vibrant colors serve as a warning of the potent venom concealed within. 

FUN FACT: When hunting, it waits patiently for prey to come near before quickly sucking it in.  Its ability to mimic debris or seaweed swaying in the current makes it nearly invisible in its natural habitat.
