Comments: Commonly amongst brown algae (<i>Cystophora</i>) in rock pools at the low tide level and subtidal areas.  Sometimes found on seaweed exposed at low tide.  Swims towards cover and positions itself like drifting algae (heads up tail down position, sculling with the pectoral fins) when disturbed.
