Info

(Günther, 1859)

Archamia bleekeri is a nctural cardinalfish that inhabits coastal mangrove areas, and shipwrecks in deeper water muddy bottoms in a depth range of 10 - 30 meters.

This species is found in coastal, mangrove zones and thought to enter rivers, but also found with shipwrecks in deeper water laying on muddy substrates; also on reefs, over sandy and muddy bottoms in silty conditions.

It forms aggregations that hover above rocky outcrops.
