Yellowspotted scorpionfish

The Yellowspotted scorpionfish (Sebastapistes cyanostigma) is characterized by its reddish to brown body with distinct yellow spots. This species is native to the Indo-Pacific region. It has a robust body, equipped with spines as a defense mechanism, and typically inhabits coral reefs. Despite its striking appearance, it is not commonly known in the aquarium hobby, primarily due to its venomous spines and specific care requirements.
