Another type of butterfly fish. A lot of butterfly fish swim in pairs, just like these two. It is said that they pair up male and female, and tend to stick together always. As you can see they also tend to have a pronounced mouth, which enables them to snip off easily polyps. Also their flattened body enables them to get further inside between the ramifications of the coral structure. Take a good look at their colors and them check out picture of Canigaster valentini... pretty similar, huh? Common name: Double-saddle butterfly fish. Bodu Huraa, Maldives.
