Indian Oriental Sweetlips close-up showing its crystalline yellow eyes, golden yellow lips and zebra-like black and white stripes. Indian Oriental Sweetlips shine out against the reef as they hover amongst the coral growth in protected lagoons. Its thick, plump lips give this fish the name of sweetlips, or rubberlips. Sweetlips are also known as Grunts because of the odd grunting sound they produce by rubbing their teeth plates together.
