Strawberry grouper Profile

Cephalopholis spiloparaea

ℹ️ Overview

The Strawberry grouper (Cephalopholis spiloparaea) displays a distinct reddish body peppered with lighter spots, mimicking a strawberry's surface—an attribute behind its common name. These marine fish are primarily found in the warm waters of the Western Atlantic, ranging from the Caribbean to the northern coast of South America. They feature a robust, somewhat rounded body typical of groupers, with large mouths adapted for their carnivorous diet. While recognizable for their striking appearance, Strawberry groupers are not among the most familiar fish in the aquarium hobby but do attract attention from enthusiasts for their coloration and interesting behavior.
