Clinitrachus argentatus is a small marine fish up to 10 centimeters long. It lives on rocky shallows and uses a sucker to firmly hold on to stones.
Clinitrachus argentatus differs from related fish by a powerful sucker on its belly, which allows it to live in the zone of strong surf. This fish is important for nature because it eats small invertebrates and serves as food for larger marine animals.
Legendary longevity: over 100 years. Galapagos tortoises, Greenland sharks, ocean quahogs celebrate with family once every 4 years
