Striped Killifish. Although they can tolerate some harsh conditions these fish don't do well when kept at the same conditions as the more better known marsh killifish.
So they die quicker. Their design with a sloped nose allows them to dive into the sand to avoid predators and beach seines. I've watched killies move into a dry marsh as the tide rolls in-and they were at the front end of the water as it moved in.
