Trying to remember the other...

bacora....small fish...I like it

Maybe you mean a flat fish, which they call "boraco" , which is very tasty, and the americans call em "triggerfish" because these fish have a spine just behind the top of their head, which ressembles the trigger of a cowboy gun...

It's a good fish to eat because it's hard to over harvest. Very beautiful rainbow colors when still alive. Parrotfish, my favorite, is currently banned locally.

It would be nice if lionfish were on more menus. They are really bad news for any reef fish.

Lionfish are unfortunately everywhere! :cry: We try to keep them down but...
They really good to eat and not a lot of fish bones! And legal to kill!!:dead:
