Anchinothria cobra [Anchinothria cobra]

Description

Divers may spot this species as a slender, snake-like fish that blends into rocky or reefy habitats. When it pauses in crevices, its elongated body and subtle movements can make it look like part of the structure until it shifts position. Encounters are usually brief, but the “cobra-like” silhouette is memorable.
