Fascinating Common Bigeye in the Red Sea (00020165)
Description: The Common Bigeye, also known as Priacanthus hamrur, is a fascinating marine creature that can be found in small schools under light-protected coral overhangs. These fish venture out of their hiding spots at sunset to hunt small fish or crustaceans, but return safely to their sheltered areas in the morning. With their large eyes, they have excellent night vision capabilities. Explore the beauty and behavior of the Common Bigeye in this stunning underwater shot in the Red Sea.
