Black Ballista fish from the Philippines
PU1100-1
It looks like a silhouette in backlight, in this beveled glass reliquary. And this silhouette can be seen on all the coral reefs of the globe, in which he digs holes with the help of his strong teeth, to lodge. The black ballist - Melichthys niger- is very dark blue, practically black. It lives in small groups and is quite difficult to approach.. Except in this reliquary, of course.
