When juveniles, these sea bream will hunt in a school, however as they grow older they become more solitary. They prefer to hunt at night and search for food in rough water and just behind the breakers, feeding on dislodged shellfish, worms and crustaceans, using their strong jaws to crunch through shells. Anglers often have a hard time catching these fish as they may catch their food in open seas they will hold it in their jaws and eat it in a calmer area.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
