A shy fish, the leopard-spotted goby lives in cracks on steep walls and caves. Shipwrecks are also a favourite habitat. You find them in the shallows and down to 40 m. It tends to face its crevice home and shoot back in if disturbed, making it difficult to take photos of it face on. Dark brown or brick red splodges cover this goby. It has diamond-shaped scales, blue-edged dorsal fins and a black spot at the back of the first dorsal fin. Its distinctive colouring makes it one of the easiest gobies to identify.
