These fish are not in the Gulf of California but do appear from Mazatlan to Panama and the Pacific Coast between those areas. They form large schools and groups around rocky and coral reefs. Smaller groups and aggregations may cluster in grottos and other protected areas of the reef. They appear unconcerned with divers and will usually allow a slow, non-threatening approach. | |
