The greatest concentrations of hog snapper are found around Florida and the islands of the West Indies. Hog snapper reside in coastal waters, especially in reef areas populated by coral organisms.

- Physical Description: The color of hog snapper varies greatly and is influenced by age, gender, habitat and immediate environment. They are often solid white, but they can also be a speckled orange, brown or copper color. The rear dorsal fin often has a small black dot at its base, especially in younger fish. The edges of the dorsal, anal and caudal fins have dark bars. Generally speaking, males are more colorful, and young hog snapper change color more quickly.
