Its Long, Flag-like Fin Is So Cool!

The Firegoblin is a popular tropical fish with a very long, thin, and cute body. Its best feature is the long fin on its back that sticks up just like a flag. It holds this pretty fin straight up and swims gently around coral reefs.

What Do Its Body Patterns Look Like?

The Firegoblin has colorful patterns that really stand out.

• Whole Body: It is mostly white and pale yellow.
• Head Area: It has bright red and orange colors from its eyes to the front of its body.
• Back Fin and Tail Fin: The tip of its back fin has black dots and lines, which look great against its white body. The long fin looks like a flag blowing in the wind.

Where Does It Live?

The Firegoblin lives in warm tropical seas.

• It always hides in sandy holes and cracks in rocks around coral reefs.
• It is a little shy, so it quickly runs into its hiding place when it senses danger.

What Does It Eat?

The Firegoblin mostly eats tiny creatures floating in the water (plankton).

• It sticks just its head out of its sandy hole, swims skillfully, and snaps up the plankton drifting by.

Two of Them Live Happily Together!

A male and female Firegoblin always form a pair (two together) and live side by side.

• The two share one hiding spot, and one of them keeps a good lookout to see if it is safe.
• A pair swimming gently with their long fins raised looks so graceful and lovely.

How Long Does It Live?

In the wild sea, a Firegoblin lives for about a few years.

How to Choose Colors: Combine 3 Elegant Colors!

The best part about Firegoblin is the contrast of white, red (orange), and black.

• Whole Body: Try carefully coloring it with shiny light yellow or white. The trick is to color lightly so it looks see-through!
• Face Area: Color the bright red or orange from the eyes to the gills clearly to make its cute face stand out.
• Long Back Fin: Use white for the base of the long back fin, and color the little black spot on the tip to make it look cool!
• Tail and Side Fins: Color them with see-through light pink or light blue to make them look sparkly in the water!

How to Make It Look 3D: Think About "Light" and "Shadow"!

Firegoblin has a long, thin body. Let's think about "light" and "shadow" to show this!

• Shadowy Places: Put a very light gray or dark yellow on the lower part of the body or where the fins meet the body. This makes it look 3D!
• Shiny Places: Leave a bright color around the middle of its back. It will look like it is glowing in the water!
