Lutjanus campechanus
Poey, 1860
The huachinango, Lutjanus campechanus is a reef fish found off the coasts of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans in the Americas and the Gulf of Mexico.
The huachinango commonly occurs at depths between 30 to 200 ft (10 to 60 m), but sometimes can be up to a maximum depth of 100 meters (300 feet). Remain relatively in the background, and inhabit rocky bottoms of the reefs, including overseas oil rigs and shipwrecks.
Huachinango the body is very similar in form to other fish. All have a characteristic profile, with the dorsal fin and body compressed laterally. The huachinangos teeth are short and sharp, but lack of upper canines found in other similar fish.
Huachinango color red is slightly pink, with an intense pigmetacion on the back. Younger fish have dark spots on their sides but disappear with age.
Like other similar fish, the huachinangos are very sociable and tend to form large schools of fish around wrecks and reefs. These schools are usually formed with fish of about the same size.
The huachinangos are a tasty meal and were fishing commercially and for recreation. Commercially, they were caught with several hooks with white hair, as its net fishing is banned in the Gulf of Mexico, where most of the fish comes from.
Genetic studies have shown, however, that sold as many fish are not really huachinango L. campechanus, but other species of the same family.
The huachinango eat almost anything, but prefer small fish and crustaceans. They can be caught with live bait as well as meat in pieces, but they can also fish with lures, but with more difficulty. Catch fish is typically between 4.5 kg and measuring 50 cm long, however, have come to bring fish up to 18 kg.
A huachinango reaches sexual maturity at age 2-5 years and can live for up to 20 years.
Recent studies have shown that the characteristic staining huachinango get the shrimp.
