Description
Orbicular batfish (Platax orbicularis) is a tropical fish that lives in the Indian and Pacific Oceans. This species is popular in the aquarium trade. The orbicular batfish has lately been observed in the Florida Keys and surrounding areas, which are not indigenous habitats. It is likely that aquarium owners released the fish into the wild in these areas.
