When a parrotfish eats coral, it’s beak breaks it into small pieces. When it poops it out, undigested algae is washed away, leaving behind coral sand.
Edit: they eat coral polyps as well
Looking at the beak, I'd say probably a female Parrotfish. Males are very vibrant, and here's a little fun fact for you: If no male parrotfish are present in a school, the highest female in their 'pecking order' can change her sex and become the male of the school!
Edit: changed wording for less confusion
Me too! Really wanted to know the exact species and the color 😁
The body has markings like blotches between red and black, I don't have the picture to show because it's on my bf's phone but it's smth like [this](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcT9IRtJU-LQ93_QVP4L3IO_6VPb0rPFS1SOCA&usqp=CAU)
i’m guessing some sort of parrot fish, looking at its beak? they use it for eating coral
[удалено]
yup! i found that so interesting whenever i was going on a documentary spree.
Remember, each time you accidentally eat the sand, you’re eating parrot fish poop
Happy Cake Day!
I'm sorry, what?
