Ecsenius axelrodi Springer, 1988
Distribution:
Western Central Pacific: Admiralty Islands, Papua New Guinea, and Solomon Islands. Replaced by Ecsenius bathi from Bali to Flores and Ecsenius dilema in the Philippines.
Lives on rocks and corals on steep slopes. Occurs in clear water, rich coral habitats on coastal to outer reef crests of slopes to about 15 m depth.
Oviparous. Eggs are demersal and adhesive.
Description:
Variable in color, usually with broad orange bands and black bars on the rear of the body, but occasionally with black longitudinal stripes.
Jumping guard
A jumping guard prevents (nocturnal) fish from jumping out.
Wrasses, blennies, hawkfishs and gobies jump out of an unprotected tank in fright if their night rest is disturbed, unfortunately these jumpers are found dried up in the morning on carpets, glass edges or later behind the tank.

A small night light also helps, as it provides the fish with a means of orientation in the dark!
