Fast Facts
This is a great looking fish that is virtually indestructible. Individuals that are seen in the trade are red-orange on top with light pinkish spots on the body. Larger specimens are rarely seen in the trade and retail the same basic color and patterns. Although it can be shy when initially introduced to the aquarium, with time it will spend more time in the open, becoming quite bold. Only one Louti Cherry Grouper should be kept per aquarium. Like all groupers, it will eat any fish that they can swallow whole and behave aggressively towards tankmates that intrude into its preferred hiding places. It will also eat ornamental shrimps and crabs. Extremely easy to care for.
