Description
Black margate (Anisotremus surinamensis) is a marine fish from the family of Grunts, native to warmer parts of the Western Atlantic Ocean. It prefers reefs and sloped rocky bottoms with hiding places, where it hunts for marine invertebrates and sometimes other fish at night. Black margate is harvested by commercial fisheries, despite risk of ciguatera poisoning, and it can be seen in public aquaria.
