What is sea chubs?

Sea chubs are a diverse group of saltwater fish found in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian oceans. They belong to the family Kyphosidae and are also known as sea pout, wrasses, and rudderfish. There are more than 20 different species of sea chubs, which vary in size and coloration.

Sea chubs are generally found in rocky areas along the shoreline, where they feed on small invertebrates such as crabs, mollusks, and worms. They are also known to eat algae and other plant material. Some species of sea chubs can grow up to two feet in length, while others remain much smaller.

Many sea chubs are popular among anglers due to their strong fighting ability and good taste. However, some species are protected due to declines in their populations. Sea chubs play an important role in their ecosystem, serving as both predator and prey for other marine animals.
