From our species guide
In plain words: Diana's hogfish is a wrasse with a long snout and sharp front teeth. A grown-up fish is red and orange. It has a row of white spots on its back, like little pearls. Babies look very different. They are dark brown with lots of white dots.
Diana's hogfish is an active wrasse with a red to orange body and a row of white spots along its back; younger fish are darker with many white spots. This is a medium-size fish. Adults reach about 7 to 10 inches, so plan on a tank of around 100 gallons with rockwork and open swimming room. It is reef safe only with caution, because it eats snails, crabs, shrimp and worms, and it can bully small, timid fish. Feed meaty foods several times a day.
