red sea bream

Plural: red sea breams

Description: The eyes of the red sea bream are so far forward they almost seem to protrude beyond the front of the face and they are also big, leading to many of the names of this fish. A black spot is seen on the shoulder and the back is usually greyish with red lights and fins are red.
