Scientific name: Caranx ignobilis
A Giant Trevally - Photographed around the Komodo National Park, Indonesia
The giant trevally are the kings of the reef, the apex predator. If you're swimming along and all the little fish suddenly dart into the coral for protection, look around and you'll probably see one of these guys on the hunt.
Please note: Identification of fish, corals, etc. is a tricky business. It's entirely possible that I've incorrectly identified a photo I've taken. If you spot an error, please contact me so I can correct it and improve this resource.
