Tiger Jawfish

Opistognathus randalli

Reef Safe

The Tiger Jawfish, also known as Randall’s Jawfish, is a fascinating marine species with a distinctive yellow head and striking black vertical stripes running along its elongated body. Reef safe and peaceful, it thrives in aquariums with deep sandy substrates, where it creates burrows for shelter and protection. Known for its shy but curious nature, the Tiger Jawfish spends much of its time peeking out from its burrow. It requires a well-established aquarium with a calm environment and stable water conditions, making it an excellent choice for aquarists who appreciate its natural behaviors and striking appearance.

These fish are for saltwater aquariums only.
