Fish ID

Post by prolog22 »

Got my underwater camera stuck between legs of MP rig yesterday. What it captured is clouds of this fish that looks like a sheepshead but, I think it is not. Any ideas?

They grow to around six inches. They make good looking aquarium pets, but if they are the largest fish in the tank they become bullies.

Some divers reported this fish attacking them.
They seem to stay between rig legs, might be good bait fish fo trolling, very colorfull..
