ℹ️ Overview
The Ocellated dragonet (Synchiropus ocellatus) is a marine fish characterized by its vibrant colors, including shades of blue, orange, and green, with distinctive ocellated (eye-like) spots. It originates from the Western Pacific Ocean, commonly found in sandy or rubble substrates of coral reefs. This species exhibits a small, elongated body with a large head and wide, fan-like pectoral fins. Despite its striking appearance, the Ocellated dragonet is not as well-known or commonly kept in the aquarium hobby compared to its relative, the Mandarinfish (Synchiropus splendidus), mainly due to its more specific care requirements and less frequent availability.
