Canvas of the Wild
The Atlantic goliath grouper is a big fish.
They are found throughout Florida’s coastal waters and the Gulf of Mexico to the Carribbean, down to Brazil. They are also found in the Pacific from Mexico to Peru, and even parts of West Africa.
Mangroves play a key role as nurseries for these grouper, with adults frequently found along rocky bottom, wrecks, and reefs.
The fish schooling around the grouper are bar jack with what looks like a remora swimming underneath.
