Tropical fish are often brightly colored, but even the ones that aren't neon colored can display intricate patterns.
We frequently encounter black durgon (a triggerfish). Most often, it appears very dark with a white line beneath the dorsal and ventral fins. However, under just the right conditions, a very elaborate pattern of markings is displayed. Fish were 8 to 10 inches long.
Sailfin tang (in the surgeonfish family) also display a very interesting pattern. This fish was about 8 inches long.
