The Yellow Goatfish, also known as the Mulloidichthys martinicus, is a species of goatfish found in the western Atlantic Ocean from Massachusetts to Brazil, including the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea. This fish is named for its bright yellow coloration and is a popular choice for home aquariums due to its peaceful nature and compatibility with a variety of other fish species. The Yellow Goatfish can grow up to 12 inches in length and has a slender, elongated body with a pointed snout. In the wild, this fish feeds on small invertebrates such as worms, crustaceans, and mollusks. In captivity, they will thrive on a varied diet consisting of frozen or live meaty foods such as brine shrimp, krill, and mysis shrimp. It is important to provide a sandy substrate for this species as they enjoy sifting through the sand in search of food.
