Also knows as.. Graus nigra or Mulata!

This fish lives in chile! it goes from Arica to Valdivia

This is a very large and big fish, they can weight over 12 kilograms or 2,2 pounds (i hope my calculation is right)

Their favorite place is the rocky coastline from 30 meters deep, mostly because there are shelters like cracks or underwater caves! very interesting

They are a carnivore fish, they like to eat a grand number of invertebrees and other fih.. oh no!

All of their fins are rounded and they have a dark coloration, going almost to black but when they are young they have spots instead of the coloration! them taking over all of the fish when they get older, their white small spots work like a imitation of eyes so their predators dont attack them by those parts.. thats amazing!

Info taken out of capitalazul page, check more about this fish there!

MY POLITICAL OPINION ABOUT THE FISH

I couldnt find that much information about the fish on my small investigation sadly, but i do have to say, i think the eye tactic is really meta for life and to survive on the ocean

Like the Chilean Sandpercg it looks like its fished on a competitive basis or because of the flavour of their meat, they can also be found close to peru! im really glad to see we share some fish

I think this fish is overall really nice and my investigation was nice, not hard at all to find a little bit of information, i would eat it if i had the chance, i hope you reading this share my opinion

Hope you have a great day
