Part of my Caribbean / St Kitts Marine Life Series.
The Atlantic Trumpetfish (Aulostomus strigosus) are large reef fish and can reach 3 ft in length.
A carnivorous fish, they hover motionless above their prey and then quickly dart in creating suction in their jaws which takes the prey straight into their mouth.
They conceal themselves by floating in a vertical head-down position among the corals.
The Trumpetfish can change its colour very quickly to match its surroundings or the prey it is stalking!

This series is a guide to the types of marine life you will find in the Caribbean generally and St Kitts in particular.
St Kitts has many underwater reefs and an abundance of Marine Life, scuba diving here is rewarding and great for scuba training.
