Star Snapper is a one of the common species cultured in Hong Kong. Natural born star snappers are found in the North-western Pacific, from Japan southward to the vicinity of Hong Kong. They are usually found in the vicinity of coral and rocky reefs.

Star snapper has a very obvious white spot just above the lateral line. Its fins are mostly yellow and its belly is pale. Cultured star snappers are usually darker in colour. Flesh of the star snappers is tender and moist, with rich flavour and fish oil. It is ideal for steaming, stir-frying and simmering in soup.

Cultured star snappers are available all year round for about $60 each.
