Description
A peaceful fish with a striking display, the flying gurnard can expand its pectoral fins into a fan shape to scare off any threats. The flying gurnard also uses these fins to walk along the ocean floor. Named gurnard, which means grunt in French, this fish makes a grunting noise. Perfect for large salt water aquariums, it needs lots of room to swim and forage.
