| Aspect: | Like smaller Eyed Flounder a master of deception, but sports blue main tones instead of tan. Top of tan body covered in blue rimmed peacock-like roundels and carries two large dark blotches along its centre line. Edges (fins) sport bluer tones. |
| Population: | Abundant. |
| Notable feature: | Eye turrets somewhat less conspicuous than Eye Flounder's, can also semi-bury into the sand. However, as the red-framed pictures below show, this is the same fish in the same spot changing attire in a fraction of a second! |
| Environment: | Hides under the sand. Spotting it requires a trained eye. |
| Behaviour: | Must be approached very cautiously. |
