Sargassum Fish. The paired fins evolved for walking in the seaweed habitat. Breathing water is expelled through a hole beneath the pectoral fin and enables locomotion by repulsion, steered by the caudal fin; slowing down, turning around, mobility of the "arms", climbing in the corals. A skin appendix of the first dorsal fin spine has a bait function; lured prey is sucked in and snapped; intaken water is released by "coughing".
