I scuba dive daily during the winter months and there is a small reef fish called a damsel fish. They actually are the shape and have the mouth size of a BG but only get to about 3"-4" long. They ferociously protect their egg area and I have watched them chase away 3' long parrot fish. If a diver ventured too close they will nip your hand hard enough to startle you.

I have often said if damselfish grew to 3 or 4 pounds, divers would get no where near a reef. Surprising what small nimble fish can do to protect their territory.
