Large Hogfish are nothing short of spectacular in appearance, with deep body, long tapering mouth with protruding teeth, a purple band running from the nose to the dorsal and flowing streamers on the dorsal fin?s first three rays. Smaller specimens have much the same characteristics but their dorsal streamers are proportionately less regal. Coloration varies, ranging from almost white to soft red.
