There are many different species of grouper, the most common of which are flower dog spots, erythema, sumac spot, mud spot, and mouse spot. Grouper meat has more thorns and less spines, delicious taste, and a large yield, which is particularly resistant. Among them, mouse spots are the most expensive. Of course, the rat is named after the rat shark, which is also shaped like a mouse.

4. Sea hare. With two small "ears" and a furry "tail", sea slugs naturally conjure up images of rabbits. In fact, the "ear" is to the antennae, specializing in the sense of smell. When the sea slug crawls on the bottom of the sea, the pair of tentacles are separated into a "figure of eight", stretching forward obliquely, sniffing the smell around them, and when resting, the pair of tentacles are immediately together, straight up, just like the two long ears of a rabbit.

Sea dragons, also known as algalosaurs, are the same species as the seahorse genus, including leaf sea dragons and grass sea dragons. The sea dragon is beautiful and lovely, often remaining still, and swimming gracefully. The body of the leaf sea dragon consists of bone plates and extends leaf-like appendages like seaweed, which can disguise itself as seaweed.

In the spring, female seahorses lay their eggs in the male seahorse's brood, and after 50-60 days, the juveniles will emerge from the brood. In the past, in the offshore net area of the East China Sea, it was often caught.
8. Sheep fish. The sheep fish has two long tentacles that resemble goat's whiskers, hence the name. These two long "whiskers" are not simple, they have a taste function, and can be used to detect erbium in sand or caves. Sheep fish often hide their whiskers on the bottom of the sea, moving diagonally or vertically to catch food on the bottom of the sea.
9. Monkey face fish. The head of the fish resembles a monkey. Not only does the face resemble a monkey, but it also has thick lips like a monkey, and has a pair of clever eyes, and when it is active on the seabed, once it finds "hostility", it will immediately burrow into the cave like a monkey to hide.
10. Chicken and fish. Also known as scaly pufferfish, it not only has a chicken-like pattern, but also tastes very similar to chicken. Its face is very interesting and has a very beautiful body color. In the small mouth, there are 8 sharp and powerful teeth like chisels, and the bite force is so strong that even the hard shell of the sea urchin can be chewed. The eyes of the chicken fish are slightly forward in the center of the back of the body, and there is a very thick hard spine in front of the first dorsal fin on the back of the body, the surface of this thick spine is covered with granular protrusions, and the base of the spine can move back and forth, like the trigger of a pistol, so the East China Sea fishermen also call it "plate fish".

Its flesh is poisonous and inedible.

In fact, it is a sea cucumber with a light pink body, translucent, and some "legs" that are actually liquid filter tubes.
