Pineapple Fish Cleidopus gloriamaris
A pineapple fish hiding under a ledge, these fish are nocturnal and found in caves and under ledges and overhangs in the day, they have bioluminescent spot near the eye to assist with hunting and are quite heavily armoured. They are only regularly seen at one site in Sydney which is an aquatic reserve. The resemblance to a pineapple is complete down to the curved spine on each segment. The specific name means "glory of the seas". Larger Image:Pineapple Fish Olympus OM-D EM-1 MkII + Panasonic 30mm macro, Nauiticam housing, INON strobes. 1/160 @ f8 ISO250 Chris Ross
