Yellowtail Snapper

This silver and yellow fish is called the Yellowtail Snapper. It can easily be identified by a yellow stripe running down its side. The fish gets its name from that yellow tail you see, although the tail, as well as the stripe can sometimes be greenish in color. Although they are mostly tropical, they can be found as far south as Brazil, and as far north as Massachusetts. They are really abundant on the reef, and often seen by divers.
