disc
I always see twin spot gobies in profile, mainly because that is how they present themselves since in this orientation, they look like a crab which they are trying to mimic. By accident, I got a shot of one facing me and noticed how strange it's pelvic fin looked. I never realized it's pelvic fins are fused together making a suction like disc which they use to cling to surfaces or sift through sand.
