Gobiesox rhessodon is a small marine fish from the clingfish family. It lives in the surf zone and clings tightly to stones using a special sucker on its belly.
Gobiesox rhessodon is distinguished by a very strong ventral sucker that 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.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
