Humuhumu hi'ukole--Pinktail Trigger Fish

Isn't this a beautiful fish!!!

This Triggerfish is named for its "pink tail". The body is so dark it looks black, but in reality it is a very deep forest green color. The dorsal and anal fins have a translucent pinkish-white appearance marked with dark bands at the outside edges, and the pectoral fins have a yellowish color to them.




A shy fish.
