Summary description from Wikipedia:
Eastern Province rocky
The Eastern Province rocky (Sandelia bainsii), also known as rocky kurper, is a species of fish in the family Anabantidae. It is endemic to South Africa.
The specific name of this species is thought to honour the Scottish geologist, explorer and soldier Andrew Geddes Bain (1797-1864) who also collected zoological specimens. Bain served as a captain in the Cape Frontier Wars and may have fought the tribal chief Sandile, for whom Castelnau named the genus.
