The mouth is small, the eyes are small, and there are teeth. There are some scales on the surface of their bodies, but the scales are also relatively small, so sometimes they are not easy to observe. Because many of their fins are green, "green-finned filefish" is another name for them. In terms of size, the fish is not particularly large, generally weighing only about 400 grams.

2. Can rubber fish be cultured

? It has been introduced above. From the point of view of living environment, rubber fish is a kind of marine fish, and it lives in the sea water at a depth of 50-120 meters. Therefore, this kind of fish is generally not farmed, because the environment under farmed conditions may make them unable to adapt, and can not fully simulate their native environment. If we want to breed them, it is likely that the cost is too high, but the economic benefit is relatively low. Therefore, the rubber fish that can be seen in the market is basically caught from the ocean, and the artificial breeding is basically not seen.
