Garibaldi is a bright orange marine fish from the damselfish family. It inhabits rocky reefs and kelp forests off the coasts of California and Mexico.
Garibaldi is distinguished by its bright orange color in adults and blue spots in juveniles. It is important for nature because it controls the growth of algae on reefs and serves as food for larger fish.
Legendary longevity: over 100 years. Galapagos tortoises, Greenland sharks, ocean quahogs celebrate with family once every 4 years
