Max length : 3.0 cm SL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 92840)
Espinas dorsales (total) : 9; Radios blandos dorsales (total) : 27; Espinas anales: 0; Radios blandos anales: 11. Distinguished by having the following characteristics: thin and elongate in form; reduced scale cover and head pores; depth of body about 2 mm (Ref. 92840).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal.
Obligate sponge dwellers. Live deep within canals of the sponges, near the openings to the incurrent canals. Sponges provide species with protection from predators and an available food source in many invertebrates. Eggs found within sponge or small plankton brought through incurrent pores (Ref. 92840).
