Sixspot / Freckled Rockcod / Cave / sixspot Grouper
Sixspot / Freckled Rockcod / Cave / sixspot Grouper (Cephalopholis sexmaculata). Banda Sea, Indonesia. For a predator to be so brightly coloured seems unusual, but the colour red becomes black at 10 meters. Without artifical light this cod would look very dull
