Description
The spanish hogfish makes a colorful addition to a large saltwater aquarium. A fastidious housekeeper, it cleans parasites off companion fish in the tank. It's also a bit of a bully and will pick on smaller fish. The spanish hogfish prefers lurking about in reefs, where its colors are easily camouflaged. Scooping up crustaceans and sea worms around the reef garden, this bottom feeder never has to go far for its next meal.
