Detailed explanation-1: -Cobia, carnivorous feeding habit, includes zoobenthos and nekton on the diet, feeding preferably on fish and crabs, although it can consume shellfish. During larval stages, their food is made preferably by copepods (Shaffer and Nakamura, 1989).
Detailed explanation-2: -Cobia are the only member of the family Rachycentridae in North America. They grow up to 6 feet and 100 pounds and live up to 12 years. They are able to reproduce when they are young-females mature at age 3 and males mature at age 2.
Detailed explanation-3: -By far, the best thing about this variety is the flavor-it’s got a naturally mild buttery taste that’s unlike any other fish. This makes cobia great for dishes like sushi, tacos, and beer-battered fish. It has a flaky texture that stays moist and tender when you fry, saute, or bake it. Cobia is also healthy.
