I saw this coral reef fish from the Pacific that bites its mate to hold on during matting. It's about 2 inches long, if I remember correctly it was orange, white, and maybe red all swirled together. Also it looked like it sits at the bottom on its pectoral fins, I might be wrong about that.
Does anyone know what fish that is, and is it possible to raise in a tank, and the difficulty novice, beginner, or advanced on the care.

Thank you for your time,

Do you remember what show you saw it on?

JrFaust

Wasn't that the Harlequin Fish or something like that....looks like the worlds most beautiful goby!!!

JrFaust

Cool fish but unfortunately that’s not the right one...
But when I think about it the fish looked a bit like a lacy FW Cory.
I keep searching the web I just can't find em... bummer.

Thanks guys for helping hopefully someone will know, or someone might point me in the right direction.

It's a Mandarin Dragonet.
I guess I'll need a bit more experience before I try to raise one of these.
