General information

General characteristics

There are different species of roosterfish. All have very high and narrow bodies. It's a very "different" fish. Its anatomy is so strange that it has a bony, flattened stone in the middle of its body to keep it upright—otherwise, it would tip over and drag itself across the rocky bottom like a sole.
