General Notes: Parupeneus cyclostomus (Lacepede 1801), the Goldsaddle Goatfish. The `beard` of the goatfish serves as `feelers` to probe the sand for worms and other hidden detritus eating life in the sandbed. Not recommended for reef systems that use the deep sandbed method. Great for bare bottom or fish only systems. Note: Due to variations among each species, livestock may not look identical to the image provided. Expect diversity since each animal is unique in color, texture and shape.
