Parrotfish (Scaridae) These are a group of marine fishes that can be found in shallow tropical and subtropical oceans all across the world. Mostly the species is found in abundance in the Indo Pacific area. You can see them in coral reefs, rocky coasts and seagrass beds. This can also play a very important role in stopping bioerosion. They are called by this name because of their dentition. Their teeth are placed feet which gives them a parrot-like appearance. The size of the parrot fish varies and can range from anywhere between 30-50 cm. But on certain occasions, you can see them crossing a length of 1 metre as well. The smallest species is the blue lip parrot fish which has a length of just 13 cm. Parrotfish are mostly herbivorous and eat only algae. Apart from that, they may also feed upon bacteria, detritus and invertebrates. Mostly in the Indopacific region, you would find commercial fisheries dedicated to nurturing them. By protecting the parrot fish we also ensure that Caribbean corals do not outgrow. As per a new study, the parrotfish is extremely important for the health of the Great Barrier Reef as it cleans inshore coral reefs. PACKING As per Buyers Requirement
Pumpus Argenteus The tropical Pumpus Argenteus can be traced at the coasts from the Persian Gulf to Borneo. Also considered as a butterfish the Pumpus Argenteus can grow up to size 23 inches. However, the most common species size ranges to around 10 inches with a weight of about 9 1/2 ounces. Though the Pumpus Argenteus is popular commercially it does not fall in the endangered category and might expand its range further by 2050. Having soft white flesh and a non- fleshy flavour the Pumpus Argenteus is consumed in a lot of places. When cooked the flesh disintegrates and provides a suitable flavour to the dish. Unfortunately, the fillets of the fish are pretty soft and cannot be used for preparing the soup. Mostly the fish is steamed whole with just a few slashes across its skin. It is this quality which makes the Pumpus Argenteus a prized catch for many. The fin rays of the White Pomphret hold together well and you usually find less ribs to handle. With the same slashes, you can also bake the pomfret and consume without any worries. You can easily find the Pumpus Argenteus in countries like the Philippines, China and Southeast Asian countries. Though premium in nature its prices have dipped due to increased supply.
