More about Black snapper
The Black snapper or Black and White snapper (Macolor niger) is a marine fish notable for its unique coloration, transitioning from black and white in juveniles to predominantly black in adults. This species is indigenous to the Indo-Pacific region, commonly found around reefs. Characterized by its sleek, elongated body and distinct color phases, it is not as prominent in the aquarium hobby, largely due to its size and habitat preferences.
