Humpback Red Snapper

Found in large, dense, stationary schools, during the day drifting with the current, dispersing at night, foraging for food, over coastal slopes of coastal reefs.
Juveniles found over coral, sand, and seagrass beds, of shallow sheltered reefs.

Most Snappers live in moderate depths, however there are a few that live much deeper. Juveniles found on inshore reefs.
They are nocturnal predators that mainly feed on fish, but will eat crustaceans, gastropods and cephalopods.
Some smaller family members eat zooplankton.
