They are commonly found near coral reefs and rocky areas, and are known for their vibrant coloration and distinctive body shape. They have a deep, laterally compressed body with a steep forehead and a pronounced snout. They are predominantly reddish-pink in color, with a white belly and a black spot on their caudal fin. Males have a slightly more elongated body shape than females, and may display a blue line along their upper lip. These fish are carnivorous and primarily feed on small invertebrates such as crustaceans, mollusks, and worms. They are highly prized as game fish, and are also popular in the aquarium trade due to their striking appearance.
