|behaviour=:An active, peaceful yet shy fish, it will eat small invertebrates. It has modified pelvic fins that mean it can "walk" along the substrate. It will bury itself in the sand at night.

|identification=:An unusual fish which is mottled brown in colour with several large dark spots. The second dorsal and anal fin also have blue spots. The first large dorsal fin is displayed vertically, this makes the fish appear larger than it really is to ward off predators. It has modified "finger like" pelvic fins that allow it to "walk" along the substrate looking for food.
