If you wanna see rare fish in Sulawesi sea, I advise you to go to Lembeh island or Lembeh Strait, this the place for looking rare and strange fish. It's located near Bitung City in North Sulawesi Province. In there we can see mimic octopus,footed fish, various colorful molluscs and so on. One more thing that make it unique is the sand, its sand is black.
I don't know what fish it is(found in Lembeh Strait)

In sulawesi also live the living fish fossil, that has lived from 360 million years ago. Right ! this fish is coelacant. Coelacant still live here, they live in deep sea.
