Eichhörnchenfisch und Kardinalbarsch

Gruppe 7 – Rötlich / Große Augen: Diese Gruppe rötlicher Fische wird aufgrund ihrer nachtaktiven Natur normalerweise nicht bei Tagestauchgängen gesehen. Die rötliche Farbe hilft ihnen, nachts besser zu erkennen, und die großen Augen helfen ihnen, besser zu sehen.

Bigscale Soldierfish (Myripristis berndti )

This species grows to a length of 30 centimetres (12 in). The body is oval and laterally compressed and the scales are quite large. The basic colour is silvery pink to pale yellowish, with red scale margins. The opercular membrane is black. The dorsal fin is large and spiny, ranging from yellow to orange-yellow. The other fins are red with white edges. The eyes are large, as this fish is mainly nocturnal.

Barspot Cardinalfish (cardenal, Apogon retrosella)

The Barspot Cardinalfish has a small, laterally compressed, and oblong body. They are reddish-pink overall with a black spot at the middle of their caudal fin base, a black bar below their second dorsal fin, and a large black spot with white lines that runs from their snout through their eyes to the end of their gill covers. The Barspot Cardinalfish is found within rocky reefs at depths up to 61 m (200 feet). They reach a maximum of 10.0 cm (3.9 inches) in length. They are nocturnal predators emerging at night and forming small schools while remaining secluded during the day. They consume small fish and small invertebrates including crab and shrimp.

Pink Cardinalfish (Apogon pacificus)

Translucent red, to orange to pink with yellow highlights, with a narrow bar from the joining point of the first and second dorsal fins fading onto lower sides, and a stripe from snout through eye fading on gill cover. Max size 10 cm. Eye with yellow top and bottom edges. Generally hides in caves and under ledges during the day, coming out to feed in the open at night.
