Cornetfish are long and skinny. At the end of a long snout, taking up about a quarter of their body, is a mouth with tiny teeth. Their mouths expand, so they can suck up fish the same size as themselves, while the long skinny shape is useful for sticking into sand and between coral branches. They are voracious predators and their body shape may also help them hide from their prey.
