When threatened, the pinfish dives into a narrow crevice, locks firmly and anchors itself in place by climbing up and locking the first one. When the second spine is pressed, it acts as a trigger that unlocks the first spine. The second dorsal fin is located directly in front of an almost identical anal fin. The dorsal fins are the main means of locomotion. They move in unison, propelling the fish into the water. The lobes of the caudal fin are elongated in large adults. The eyes of the grey triggerfish are located far from the mouth. The scales on the front half of the body are large and plate-shaped, while those on the back are smooth.
