Wikipedia Abstract

Heteroclinus perspicillatus, the Common weedfish, is a species of clinid native to southern Australia where it is found in seagrass beds and rocky reefs (especially with kelp cover) at depths of up to 10 metres (33 ft) . This species can reach a maximum length of 20 centimetres (7.9 in) TL. The common weedfish is ovoviviparous, meaning young develop inside eggs and hatch within the female, before the well-developed larvae are born alive.
