Smallscale Scorpionfish

Scientific name: Scorpaenopsis oxycephala

A Smallscale Scorpionfish - Photographed at West of Eden in the Similans, Thailand

Scropionfish are usually masters of disguise, but this one can't seem to match the grassy green soft coral it's decided to rest on. You can find a lot of scropionfish on the Boonsung Wreck as well as West of Eden in the Similans.

Please note: Identification of fish, corals, etc. is a tricky business. It's entirely possible that I've incorrectly identified a photo I've taken. If you spot an error, please contact me so I can correct it and improve this resource.
