Lizard Fish!!!!!

During my dive in Great Harbor Peter, BVI, I saw a cute lizard fish hiding on the sandy bank. I approached it cautiously and took one of my best pictures so far.

-Lizardfishes are benthic marine and estuarine bony fishes. They are found in tropical and subtropical marine waters throughout the world.

-Lizardfishes are generally small, although the largest species measures about 60 cm in length. They have slender, somewhat cylindrical bodies, and heads that superficially resemble those of lizards. The dorsal fin is located in the middle of the back, and accompanied by a small adipose fin placed closer to the tail. They have mouths full of sharp teeth, even on the tongue.

-Lizardfishes are benthic animals that live in shallow coastal waters; even the deepest-dwelling species of lizardfish live in waters no more than 400 m (1,300 ft) deep.
