Blackfin Barracuda Sphyraena qenie occurs in the tropical Indo-Pacific from the Persian Gulf, the Red Sea and East Africa to the central Indian Ocean and French Polynesia and in the Eastern Pacific in Mexico and Panama in a depth range from 1-100m, max. length 170cm, common 80cm. The exact range is uncertain because of confusion with Pickhandle Barracuda Sphyraena jello and Sawtooth Barracuda Sphyraena putnamae. The species is found near current-swept lagoon and seaward reefs and is usually seen in large semi-stationary schools during the day like these specimen. Blackfin Barracuda have a tendency to occupy the same site for months or even years at a time. They probably disperse at night to feed on fishes. Some ther fish species follow the school: Bignose Unicornfishes Naso vlamingii, Yellowmask Surgeonfishes Acanthurus mata and Blue Triggerfishes Odonus niger in the background.

A barracuda is a large, predatory, ray-finned fish known for its fearsome appearance and ferocious behaviour. The barracuda is a saltwater fish of the genus Sphyraena, the only genus in the family Sphyraenidae which was named by Constantine Samuel Rafinesque in 1815. It is found in tropical and subtropical oceans worldwide ranging from the eastern border of the Atlantic Ocean to the Red Sea, on its western border the Caribbean Sea, and in tropical areas of the Pacific Ocean.

Slender Suckerfish Echeneis naucrates is found in inshore as well as offshore in tropical and warm temperate waters at depths from 20 to 50m. Although known for attaching to a variety of hosts including sharks, rays, large bony fishes, sea turtles and marine mammals as well as sometimes ships, the Sharksucker is often observed in free-swimming groups over shallow coral reefs. Echeneis naucrates has a specialized dorsal fin that evolved into a suction disc. Instead of spines for swimming, the fin has become a series of transverse, comb-like lamellae that can raise or lower. The disc creates adhesion through friction and suction. The complex musculature allows fine control of attachment strength. This species is dependent upon their hosts for survival as they are a poor swimmer and lack a swim bladder.

An underwater image of a Great Barracuda (Sphyraena). This saltwater fish lives on tropical reefs and is a ferocious predator of smaller fish. This side view shows its distinctive chevron markings. These fish often cruise alone on the outskirt of the reef as shown here. This behavior enables them to quickly catch their prey, the instinctive urge that ensures the success and survival of their species. This image was taken at Phi Phi, Thailand, whilst scuba diving.
