Description
First time saw and photographed this fish!
Amanses scopas, also known as the Broom Filefish, is a filefish, the only species in the genus Amanses of the family Monacanthidae.
Dark brown with white lips. Males have long yellow spines coming out of their flanks. Females have a black velcro-like patch in the same location.
The broom filefish is a harmless tropical reef fish from the Red Sea and the Indo-Pacific oceans, growing to a length of 20 cm.
Somewhat wary and secretive, always near shelter.
