The Java Razorfish is a fish that is the member of the Labridae family. Not much is known about this fish but it gets the name Java from the area where it ranges in Java, Indonesia. There also have been some reports about the fish also being spotted in the Red Sea but those reports are suspect. Since there is not much known about the fish they suspect that it lives in sand and rubble habitats.
