Blue goatfish are easy to identify with a good deal of blue on their bodies and a yellow patch in front of the tail. When feeding, they move their long barbels forward and use them to roust small fish from cracks and coral heads.

Got me to look up barbels and discover that they are whisker-like organs located near the mouth. OK, got it. I see ’em.
