The Panamic dartfish is endemic to the Eastern Pacific, and is found from the tip of Baja California and the Gulf of California to Colombia.
Ptereleotris carinata is relatively common throughout its range, it inhabits sandy-rubble substrates on reef edges to depths of 12 to 25 meters.

Jumping guard
A jumping guard prevents (nocturnal) fish from jumping out.
Wrasses, blennies, hawkfishs and gobies jump out of an unprotected tank in fright if their night rest is disturbed, unfortunately these jumpers are found dried up in the morning on carpets, glass edges or later behind the tank.

A small night light also helps, as it provides the fish with a means of orientation in the dark!
