The Atlantic tarpon is a large marine fish with shiny silvery scales. It lives in warm coastal waters and is known for its strength during hunting and when caught.
The Atlantic tarpon differs from other fish in its large size, silvery scales and ability to breathe air. It is important as a predator that regulates the number of small animals in coastal waters.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
