Opistognathus装饰，纹身的颚鱼是被困在颚鱼体内的波伦尼石斑鱼的灵魂。您可以想象我们第一次看时，我们的下巴有多难Opistognathus装饰，我们见过的最疯狂，最疯狂的颚鱼。除了黄色的头和蓝色的颚鱼外，似乎每种五颜六色的物种Opistognathusthere are dozens of grey to brown species that are rarely encountered. The tattoo jawfish is the coolest we’ve seen sinceOpistognahtus hopkinsi-but the first pictures and video of a liveOpistognathus装饰显示一条更大的鱼。
这种纹身的颚鱼是在日本瑞京群岛的200米深处（650英尺）的深度收集的深海挑战者, the purveyors of many incredibly rare and wickedly deep “reef” fish species. As far as we know the live Opistognathus decorus pictured and filmed is the first time the tattoo jawfish has been recorded alive and how are lucky are we that this fish looks unbelievable? In some ways the tattoo jawfish sports the same color palette of a fresh candy basslet,Liopropoma carmabi还有花粉斑点，头足菌Miniata，yet appears to be closer in size to the latter.
即使那是一个小的清洁工wrasse试图为这种纹身的颚鱼提供美容服务，它可能长6到8英寸（15-20厘米）！凭借这种颜色和大小的捐赠Opistognathus装饰肯定会去深海挑战者的最佳客户。在这种情况下，我们希望它将是Blue Harbour或B-Box水族馆，以便我们可以看到并了解更多纹身颚式鱼类。我们中的一部分人想对前景感到悲观，永远像以往一样，在水族馆中看到这种物种，但是仅今年，我们就看到了薄荷的夹牙和麻醉症！
