Gomophia egyptiaca Gray 1840, Egyptian Seastar. Indo Pacific; Red Sea to the South Pacific. Needs shade, calcareous rocks which it feeds on the life on. Typified by isolated tubercles each surrounded by a white ring.

Lactophrys trigonus (Linnaeus 1758), the Buffalo Cowfish. Tropical west Atlantic. To about eighteen inches in length. A juvenile here at the Camden Aq.

Liopropoma rubre Poey 1861, the Peppermint Bass. Tropical west Atlantic. To three and a half inches in length. A small, shy beauty that adapts well to peaceful surroundings that include dark caves to hide and sleep in.

The Emperor Snapper, Lutjanus sebae (Cuvier 1816), is a real beauty as a juvenile, but beware; it gets to be a real honker... more than three feet long in the wild! Another good reason to under- and infrequently feed an emperor is that their gorgeous color fades with growing size. An adult in captivity.
