Description The orange-spotted grouper Epinephelus coioides,
locally known as hamour, is the food fish in
greatest demand and correspondingly fetches the highest price in the local market. However, there has been a significant decline in natural stocks from severe over-exploitation in UAE waters over the last few years, as indicated by decreased landings. The high market demand and reduced natural supplies
of the orange-spotted grouper make this species the top potential candidate for aquaculture in UAE.
