The Pacific four-eyed fish (Anableps dowei) is a species of four-eyed fish native to the coastal waters on the Pacific side of southern Mexico to Nicaragua.

[3] This fish is gregarious and inhabits mangrove swamps, tidal mudflats, and other coastal brackish ecosystems.

During low tide, they will crawl onto shore to eat algae and other organic matter.

As with other members of Anablepinae, this species is livebearing and has left or right leaning genitals to prevent inbreeding.

Additionally, the fish has specialized muscles enabling each eye to adjust its focus independently, further enhancing its ability to adapt to both aerial and aquatic environments.
