Rock Cod (Cephalopholis miniata) Photographs
and Information
The Coral Rock Cod inhabits clear waters of coral reefs; more often found in exposed rather than protected reef areas. Feeds on fishes (80%, mainly Pseudanthias squamipinnis) and crustaceans. It forms haremic groups comprising of a dominant male and 2 to 12 females. These groups occupy territories of up to 475 sq m subdivided into secondary territories and defended by a single female. Generally common.
Dorsal spines (total): 9 - 9; Dorsal soft rays (total): 14 - 15; Anal spines: 3; Anal soft rays: 9. Red with large, evenly spaced blue spots on head, body and fins.
Rock cod is a fish that
actually does not belong to the cod family, but instead is more
closely related to a grouper.

Coral Rock Cod:
The flesh of this fish is white,
flaky, and tender. The taste is slightly sweet and mild with
a somewhat fishy taste and odor. The fish contains very
little fat, so it is a healthy meal choice. It is delicious
when fried, but is also popular smoked or in sushi dishes.
