Description
The black-side hawkfish (Paracirrhites forsteri) can be found in tropical and subtropical regions of the Indian and Pacific Oceans. It ambushes small fish and crustaceans by waiting atop coral heads for an opportune moment to strike. It is harvested for the aquarium trade and also for its meat, which is sold fresh.
