Silvergrey Grunt

Found singly in pairs or schools during the day close to sheltered areas out at night foraging for food over hard rock and rubble bottoms of coastal reefs.

In some areas of the world 'Grunts' are better known as 'Sweetlips' distinguished from other species by their very large rubbery lips.
'Grunts'because they "grunt," the grunting sound is produced by their flat teeth plates rubbing together and this is amplified by their air bladders.
Found either singly or in schools hovering or motionless over the reef during the day, becoming nocturnal predators.
