Chinamanfish Symphorus nematophorus

chinamanfish

Pictured above is a fairly young Chinamanfish! As this fish grows larger the rays on the dorsal fin will disappear and the light blue stripes will fade and the fish will take on a more reddish slightly mottled appearance.

Chinamanfish are members of the snapper family and eat just what you would expect... small fish and other sea life small enough to fit in their mouth.
