13132551. Orbicular batfish, Platax orbicularis
Orbicular batfish, Platax orbicularis. Two young fish close to surface at sunset. Young fish have a curious behavior related to feeding and to protect themselves from the numerous predators of the mangrove. Sometimes they assume a lying position allowing themselves to be carried immobile by the current, looking like a dead leaf. Its brownish coloration with dark spots further reinforces this mimic effect. They live in shallow protected coastal waters to deep, somewhat silty habitats. Adults are found singly or in small groups and occasionally in large schools. Juveniles occur singly or in small groups among mangroves and inner sheltered lagoons while adults move out to open waters over sandy areas of deep lagoons, channels, and seaward reefs to a depth of at least 30 m.

Sunset Serenade - The Curious Case of the Orbicular Batfish Duo!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness a mesmerizing sunset scene where two young Orbicular Batfish gracefully glide near the water's surface. These adorable fish possess a unique and fascinating behavior that revolves around feeding and self-preservation in the mangrove ecosystem. To outsmart their numerous predators, these clever youngsters adopt an ingenious disguise. They assume a motionless position, mimicking fallen leaves carried by the gentle current. Their brownish coloration adorned with dark spots further enhances this mimicry, making them indistinguishable from nature's debris. Living in shallow coastal waters to deep silty habitats, adult Orbicular Batfish can be found either solitary or in small groups, occasionally even forming large schools. However, it is among the protective embrace of mangroves and inner sheltered lagoons that juvenile batfish thrive. As they mature into adulthood, these vibrant creatures venture out to open waters over sandy areas of deep lagoons, channels, and seaward reefs. This stunning photograph captures not only their remarkable mimicry but also showcases their vibrant hues against the backdrop of a breathtaking sunset. It serves as a reminder of the diverse beauty that lies beneath our oceans' depths. So dive into this enchanting world filled with colorful marine life! Let these charming baby batfish inspire you with their intriguing behavior and remind you to always protect our precious underwater ecosystems for generations to come.
