Juvenile longfin rockcod?

Description 	

    unusually long pectoral fin
    wire netting pattern is less distinct over face
    no spots on pectoral fins
    tail fin carries a black outer patch on the lower edge
    bands or bars on chest and throat

Family name 	

Serranidae (cods and gropers)
Family description 	

    bottom-dwelling (demersal) predators
    highly regarded food fish
    most have small scales
    hard to see lateral lines and usually rounded to emarginate tail fins

Size and bag limits 	

    minimum size: 38 cm
    combined bag limit of 5 for all cods and gropers
    in addition to individual limits, there is a total bag limit of 20 for all coral reef fin fish

Other guess would be greasy cod, but it's missing the large dark blotch in the centre back over the base of the last four dorsal spines

Bird wire cod. Don't know the first two but the first looks like some sort of wrasse and the second maybe a damsal?

[battlescar]

2nd one almost looks like a drummer

[jeff f]

2nd one is a damsel

3rd a wire netting cod

[aussie123]

First one may be a Juvie 8 Bar Groper and second maybe an Oval Damselfish.

I draw the members attention to that part of the Terms of Use that states each post must be in English.

I have dicked around with the online translators and I'm still not certain what abuse you have flung at me, Catweazle :silly:

Sorry my latin is a bit rusty and it is a tricky language, probably did not help that I just scraped through and my teacher was a defrocked nun with a flagellation fixation forced to find work in the public system(how was that for a bit of alliteration) loosely lol translated

That is what I wrote word for word ellicat

Thought there would be another anus joke

[ellicat]

Nice alliteration - I was smiling with joy before I reached the brackets :pinch: :silly:

The "anus" proved a tad tricky for the trusty translator to transcribe :whistle: and I thought you may have missed out an "n" which made things even less sensible :S

[elops]

Yes anus is a bit tricky not sure but think it may be a greek root

Solum oris is the best I can do in latin but does not quite have that ring to it :whistle:
