Mimic filefish

The Mimic filefish (Paraluteres prionurus) is notable for its striking resemblance to the poisonous Valentinni's sharpnose puffer. It features a blend of white, yellow, and black colors, aiding its mimicry. This species originates from the Indo-Pacific region. In terms of appearance, it possesses a slender body compared to the pufferfish it mimics. Despite its fascinating mimicry trait, the Mimic filefish is not particularly well-known in the aquarium hobby, partially due to its specific care requirements and its niche appeal among enthusiasts.
