They are name for the light blue stripe on their throats. They hold a territory, usually centred around a deep hole under a rock, often controlling a harem of smaller females. Females are cream coloured with a white and dark band across the mid body. The Blue-throated Wrasse is also known as the Bluehead, Bluehead Parrotfish, Bluenose, Bluenose Parrotfish, Kelpie, Lilac Banded Parrotfish, Rocky Bream, Rocky Cod, Rotfish, and Winter Bream. It grows to 50cm in length.Range: Coastal reefs in S.A, Vic, Tas and in small numbers in southern NSW Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ranger 48 Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 They are also a sign that you are over good bottom. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
piratepom 3,197 Posted October 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Thanks Ranger, as i remember we caught heaps of smaller ones on SPs, maybe the females, all were returned unharmed, as we weren't sure of their eating qualities, sounds like we made the rigth choice. Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
