The sand diver is a species of lizardfish that inhabits the subtropical waters of the Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico. It has an elongated brownish-gray color body with reddish vertical bars covering their back and yellow lines stretch along lateral sides of its body.
An interesting fact is that the sand diver is an ambush predator which means it will patiently wait for the prey to come closer and then it will grab it in a blink of an eye.

Often seen in Caribbean Sea
