Sleek Unicornfish by branching coral

Poster - Sleek Unicornfish diving over branching corals

Sleek Unicornfish diving over branching Acropora corals. Despite their name, neither gender of Sleek Unicornfish have horns. They have a varied depth range but are normally found in deeper waters, feeding during the day and resting at night.

Individually crafted - we take pride in our unique collection of underwater photography. Our high quality photo prints featuring pictures of tropical fish are printed individually to order.
