Heavybeak parrotfish
Heavybeak parrotfish or steephead parrotfish (Chlorurus gibbus). This tropical fish inhabits reefs and shallow waters in the Red Sea, feeding mainly on algae and reaching a length of around 70 centimetres. Cases of ciguatera poisoning from eating this fish have been reported. This occurs when toxins accumulate in a large tropical fish, originating from an alga further down the food chain. Photographed in the Red Sea. Science Photo Library features Science and Medical images including photos and illustrations. © PETER SCOONES/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vibrant Heavybeak parrotfish, also known as the steephead parrotfish (Chlorurus gibbus), in its natural habitat within the Red Sea. With its striking colors and unique features, this tropical fish is a true marvel of nature. Found in reefs and shallow waters, it thrives on a diet primarily consisting of algae and can grow up to an impressive length of 70 centimeters. However, there is a cautionary note associated with this beautiful creature. Cases of ciguatera poisoning have been reported from consuming this fish. This unfortunate condition arises when toxins accumulate in larger tropical fish due to their consumption of smaller organisms that carry these toxins originating from alga further down the food chain. Despite this potential danger, it's impossible not to appreciate the solitary beauty captured in this photograph. The lone Heavybeak parrotfish gracefully swims amidst coral reefs, showcasing its herbivorous nature while navigating through the crystal-clear waters of the Indian Ocean. This image serves as a reminder of both the wonders and complexities found beneath our oceans' surfaces. It highlights how delicate ecosystems like coral reefs are interconnected and emphasizes the importance of understanding marine life for conservation purposes. Photographed by Science Photo Library, this stunning shot invites us into an underwater world teeming with life—where even seemingly harmless creatures can hold hidden dangers if not approached with knowledge and respect.
