Explore the captivating world of the Mahi-Mahi, a vibrant marine spectacle that beckons the admiration of ocean enthusiasts and wildlife admirers alike. Known for its dazzling colors that shimmer in the sunlight, this fast-swimming fish is a marvel in tropical and subtropical waters worldwide. Often celebrated for its acrobatic prowess and speed, the Mahi-Mahi is a symbol of the ocean's boundless beauty and mystery. Its striking appearance, featuring iridescent hues of blue, green, and gold, makes it a favorite subject among marine life photographers and conservationists. This magnificent creature, embodying the essence of the sea's majesty, captures the imagination of those who are drawn to the wonders beneath the waves, making it an iconic emblem of aquatic adventure and exploration.
Mahi-mahi have compressed bodies and a single long-based dorsal fin extending from the head almost to the tail. Mature males have prominent foreheads protruding well above the body proper. Females have a rounded head. Their caudal fins and anal fins are sharply concave. They are distinguished by dazzling colors - golden on the sides, and bright blues and greens on the sides and back. The pectoral fins of the mahi-mahi are iridescent blue. The flank is broad and golden. Out of the water, the fish often change color (giving rise to their Spanish name, dorado, "golden"), going through several hues before finally fading to a muted yellow-grey upon death.
Mahi-mahi can live for up to five years, although they seldom exceed four. Females are usually smaller than males. Catches typically are 7 to 13 kg (15 to 29 lb.) and a meter in length. They rarely exceed 15 kg (33 lb), and mahi-mahi over 18 kg (40 lb.) are exceptional. Mahi-mahi are among the fastest-growing of fish. They spawn in warm ocean currents throughout much of the year, and their young are commonly found in rafts of Sargassum weeds. Young Mahi Mahi migrate past Malta where they are called Lampuki and Sicily where they are known as Lampuga or Capone; there they are fished using nets and floating mats of palm leaves under which they collect.
