Fishtober Day 10 - Longnose Hawkfish
Check out the creator! ^ [@/fishiscrazy]

Double digits! Today's fish is the Longnose Hawkfish and despite what its name might leave you to believe, it isn't affiliated with Stampy Cat.
They are one of the few monogamous fish [like angelfish] and they are pelagic spawners which means they spawn near the surface of the ocean. Some eggs will get eaten/won't hatch but they lay many thousands for the species to survive.
They're often kept in aquariums as they're only found 10-100m below sea level, and they can grow up to 13cm [5 inches] long. They’re also the only known member of their genus - 'Oxycirrhites' - which means sharp 'Cirrhitidae' - their family.
[Does anyone know Stampy? ""- -] 🐙 + 🐙

Loving this journey of rediscovering underwater photography. Took this image of a Freckled Hawkfish in Ponta Do Oura, loved the lighting and the detail. Not bad for an 11 year old camera. #canong16 #canong16_scuba #seaandseastrobes #underwaterphotography #underwatermacrophotography #freckledhawkfish

You are flowers on the seabed. Even your Japanese names have 'flowers' in them. Lovely!

Mermay Day 8: Coral Hawkfish
Okay, so I didn't fully have a plan for how I was going to color these merfolk, and I'm still not sure if this gives more Ladybug than Coral Hawkfish, but it was a fun experiment. According to Wikipedia female coral hawkfish can change sex to become males as they mature, and the males can be territorial and guard groups of females, so I was kinda playing around with that idea. I feel like these ladies are more amused than they are feeling protected.
Prompt came from @theartloca

I did not kill Mr. Plum in the billiards room with the candlestick, what would give you that idea.
