Monodactylus argenteus (silver moony)

Monodactylus argenteus - silver moonyfish, silver moony, butter bream, diamondfish
The silver moonyfish (Monodactylus argenteus), aka silver moony, butter bream, and diamondfish, is a species of fish in the family Monodactylidae. This fish is native to the western Pacific and Indian Oceans, including the Persian Gulf, Red Sea, and associated estuaries such as the Mekong Delta. The silver moonyfish is bright shiny silver with yellowish edges on its fins. The dorsal and anal fins have black tips. Juveniles display more yellow coloration and are distinguished by two vertical black bands. Its ability to survive in a wide range of salinities makes it a model organism for studying salinity tolerance.
