The yellow snappers are known for their schooling behavior, bright coloration, and size. The distinct yellow color serves as a visual cue for schooling and helps with camouflage among the coral reefs where they reside. The size of the snappers contributes to their role in the ecosystem as both predators and prey. These fish, with their luminous yellow hues, range in size from small juveniles to larger adults, some reaching up to 30 to 40 centimeters in length.
