Scientists at the University of Queensland have discovered a fish living in the coral reefs that changes color to mimic and blend in with other fish. This gives it the ability to launch a surprise attack.
This is the fangblenny, which can change its colors at will to blend in with any passing shoal fish, are often seen in the company of cleaner fish in the coral reefs, and attack passing reef fish which do not suspect its presence.
