Description: The Common Bigeye, scientifically known as Priacanthus hamrur, is a fascinating marine creature that can be found in small schools under light-protected coral overhangs in the Red Sea. These fish are known for their nocturnal hunting expeditions in search of small fish and crustaceans. In the mornings, they return to their sheltered spaces where their large eyes, providing excellent night vision, keep them safe.
