Description: The Common Bigeye, also known as the Priacanthus hamrur, is a fascinating marine creature found in small schools under light-protected coral overhangs in the Red Sea. These fish leave their habitat at sunset to hunt small fish or crustaceans, returning to their shelters in the morning. With their large eyes, they are able to see exceptionally well at night, aiding them in their hunting endeavors.
