Description

The Freckled Hawkfish, also known as Forster’s Hawkfish or Blackside Hawkfish, undergoes color changes several times during its lifetime. As a juvenile, it is burgundy with a yellow tail. As an adult, it may be pink, brown, or an olive color. The black or red freckles on the face are constant throughout its lifetime.

The Freckled Hawkfish or Forster’s Hawkfish diet should include a variety of marine meats, frozen preparations, and live feeder shrimp.
