French Grunt Fish

These almond-shaped schooling reef fish are silvery white with vibrant yellow stripes running along their bodies, and have been seen in groups of several thousand. They can grow to be almost 12 inches long, but are usually found around half that length. Their name ‘grunt’ comes from the noise they make by grinding their teeth together.

This grunt occurs in large schools, that can number in the thousands, over rocky substrate, coral reefs, under ledges or close to elkhorn coral. Depths range from shallow water to 197 feet (60m). Juveniles often are abundant in the protection of seagrass beds in bays, lagoons, and other coastal waters.
