The Pseudomugilidae, the blue-eyes, are a subfamily of atheriniform fish in the rainbowfish family Melanotaeniidae. [1] They inhabit fresh and brackish water in Australia, New Guinea and nearby smaller islands. [2] Blue-eyes are small fish, typically no more than 5 cm (2.0 in) in length.
The Pacific blue-eye generally reaches a total length of around 3–3.5 cm (1 + 1 ⁄ 8 – 1 + 3 ⁄ 8 in) long; males can reach 8.8 cm (3 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) and females 6.3 cm (2 + 1 ⁄ 2 in). [4] The size of Pacific blue-eyes found north of the Burdekin Gap increases directly with distance from the gap, males and females being the same size.
The spotted blue-eye has an elongated body generally up to 2.5 cm (1 in), or rarely 3 cm (1.2 in) in length. The overall colour is transparent to pale silver-white, sometimes with tints of tan or yellow. The rear half of the body is marked with three horizontal black lines, breaking up into spots anteriorly.

The mouth is just above the tip of the snout. The fins are large and rounded and are yellow, some edged with blue round the margins. The dorsal fin is set just in front of the caudal region, has a distinctive black eyespot at the base and has 13–14 spines and 16–18 soft rays. The anal fin has 3 spines and 16–18 soft rays.
Porpita porpita, or the blue button, is a marine organism consisting of a colony of hydroids [2] found in the warmer, tropical and sub-tropical waters of the Pacific, [3] Atlantic, and Indian oceans, as well as the Mediterranean Sea and eastern Arabian Sea. [4] It was first identified by Carl Linnaeus in 1758, under the basionym Medusa porpita.
It can be identified by the yellow eye colour. The eye of the roach has a big red spot above the pupil, that can be more or less conspicuous. The rudd has an upturned mouth allowing it to feed easily at the top of the water. The placement of the dorsal fin is more to the rear which is even visible in very young fish.
