Spotted Garden Eel

Альтернативные названия: Heteroconger hassi

The spotted garden eel is a small fish that can be found in the Indo-Pacific region. It has a long, thin whitish body covered by small black spots.
In order to hide from predators, the spotted garden eel makes itself rigid and drives its tail deep into the sandy sea floor. It's tail skin contains a hard substance to protect the tail while it is in the sand. After it is deep enough it will use the slime from its skin for cementing the walls in order to prevent cave-ins.
