Blue line grouper

The Blue line grouper (Cephalopholis formosa) is a marine fish identifiable by its striking blue lines atop a reddish-brown base color. It has a robust, slightly elongated body typical of groupers. Originating from the Indo-Pacific region, this species can often be found around coral reefs. In the aquarium hobby, it is less common compared to other grouper species, partially due to its size and the level of care required.
