This week in Amed, we keep on adding some more Muck Dives discoveries and get to admire the Leaf Scorpionfish; a pretty fish with a weird shape that preys on shrimps, crabs and even smaller fish thanks to its venomous spines; a strong venom still considerably weaker than that of the stonefish.

It holds this name because of its ability to impersonate other local species by changing its skin color and texture and literally blend with its environment. All thanks to what is called the…
