Filefishes
Filefishes are a diverse group of small to medium-sized fish known for their compressed bodies, rough skin covered in small, plate-like scales, and distinctive coloration. They are found in tropical and subtropical waters around the world, often inhabiting coral reefs and rocky areas. Filefishes are characterized by their protruding mouths and sharp teeth, which they use to feed on a variety of invertebrates and algae. Some species are highly territorial and may exhibit unique behaviors such as changing color to blend in with their surroundings or mimicking other species for protection.
