The Blue Spot Jaw Fish Opistognathus rosenblatti is one of the most stunning of all the jaw fish spieces. Collected near the Sea of Cortez in the Mexican waters this fish looks as though it stole the pirate treasure to decorate it's striking shimmer. Unbelievable fish. THE CAN JUMP CAUTION!
As this fish loves to burrow. We HIGHLY reccomend a sand bed aquairum. NO BARE BOTTOMS sorry.
