Description
The White Warehou is a deep-water marine fish found in the Southern Hemisphere, particularly off New Zealand and Australia. It is a commercially important species, known for its firm, white flesh. Due to its large size, deep-water habitat, and specific environmental requirements, it is not suitable for home aquariums and is only found in highly specialized public aquariums, if at all.
