Wikipedia Abstract

Diploprion bifasciatum, known commonly as the Barred Soapfish or Two-banded soapfish among other vernacular names, is a species of marine fish in the family Serranidae. The Barred Soapfish is widespread throughout the tropical waters of the Indo-West Pacific region. This species reaches a length of 25 centimetres (9.8 in). Soap Fish get their name from toxins that, when released from their skin, resemble lathered soap.
