Part whimsy, part warrior, the Persian Carpet (Pseudobiceros Bedfordi) flaunts its audacious colors and patterns in a “look, but don’t mess with me” attitude, which trumps its three-inch size. It swims in the shallow waters of the Indo-West Pacific displaying its paisley-like design and coloration and delicate undulating movements as both a beautifier and a warning to predators. The Persian Carpet’s Achilles heel, however, is stress. Without access to a spa or martini bar, stress causes them to literally fall apart and dissolve in their own enzymes. So the message here is to be very relaxed when wearing your Persian Carpet print I’a swimsuit.
