🐟 Fishuary 2024 Day Five: Triggerfish 🐟
Tumblr media
Humuhumunukunukuāpuaʻa, reef triggerfish, wedgetail triggerfish, rectangular triggerfish, the species Rhinecanthus rectangulus goes by many names! At first I didn't think I'd do this fish (since it is a bit unfair to only be known for your name), but looking through pictures of triggerfishes, one caught my eye... "Ah, the wedgetail triggerfish? What pretty colours and patterns! I could draw that one! What's its scientific name?" and humuhumu it was!

[Video description: a gray triggerfish sees his reflection in my phone camera and tries to investigate]
Wesson is an absolute treasure. He makes the hardest days as an aquarist worth my while.

🐠 Daily Fish Fact: 🐠
Lagoon Triggerfish moves through the water by using waving motions in its dorsal and anal fins, allowing it to move more precisely. Using these movements, it can move forwards, backwards or simply hover in place above the reef. This means that it can more easily back out of crevices than other unidirectional fish.

Daily fish fact #522
Clown triggerfish!
Tumblr media
Their teeth never stop growing, as they use them to crack open hard-shelled invertebrates! They’re highly territorial, showing off their first dorsal fin as a warning to opponents and predators, and may deliver a painful bite.
