Threadfin snapper Profile

The Threadfin snapper (Symphorichthys spilurus) is a tropical marine fish known for its striking appearance. It displays a range of colors, with a body primarily in shades of pink, accented by yellow and blue hues, especially around the fins and tail. This fish is native to the Indo-Pacific region, commonly found from the western Pacific Ocean to the eastern coast of Africa. Characterized by its elongated dorsal fins and a sleek body shape, the Threadfin snapper can reach sizes notable for aquarium fish. Despite its beauty, it is not prominently well-known in the aquarium hobby, possibly due to its size and specific care requirements, making it a rare and unique addition for dedicated fish enthusiasts.
