Another tropical visitor in Sydney; the purple rock cod is normally found in tropical Australia. The most southern sighting in Reef Life Survey is Port Stephens, but a specimen was caught in Sydney Harbour in 1991. The juvenile in this photo was flitting around at Shiprock, Port Hacking in October 2016. Photo captured from high definition video.
