Description
The pet male is on average 20 to 30 centimeters long, a maximum of 42 centimeters. The top is dark green, the bottom is light green. The flanks have a light blue pattern throughout. The lower jaw is longer than the upper jaw. The first, smaller dorsal fin with the large spiked rays is characteristic. These have deep longitudinal furrows in which the poisonous tissue is located. There is also a large, powerfully built poison spike at the upper edge of the gill cover. The pet male can be distinguished from the viperqueise (Trachinus vipera) by its 2 or 3 small spines on the front upper edge of the eye socket.
