Findr bio

Bright red and territorial — I hold a patch of reef and defend it, which means a bait dropped right on my rock rarely lasts long.

Day

A reef homebody — I rarely move more than a few hundred metres from the same patch of rocky reef my whole life, which makes local overfishing especially hard on my population.
