livingart Posted December 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 positive ID of gurnard originally it was thought shape and finnage were too different changing more, fins and leg positions changed slightly, size up to 12mm colour starting to show eating mysid and pods Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthony law Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 cool they love the sand bed tank to play in, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F15hguy Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 I would more likely lean towards juvenile Spotted gurnard due to the larger head to body ratio.... look at the dorsal, is the first ray quite a bit shorter than the second??? iof it is then spotted...

F15hguy Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 looks like (a bit early to tell for sure) a spotted gurnard, nice, they are a lot smaller than the common red gurnard. nice cuttle..... seems like you may need a new tank soon though... or a seafood chef.
