The small beak-like mouth at the tip of the snout has fleshy lips. The eyes are set far back near the top of the head. The body is laterally compressed and deep-bodied with a tough, leathery skin. The front dorsal fin has three spines, the first being very strong and much longer than the other two. The second dorsal fin has 26 to 29 soft rays and is much the same size and shape as the anal fin directly below it which has no spines and 23 to 26 soft rays. The pectoral fins are small and rounded. The outer rays of the caudal fin are elongated in larger individuals. The scales on the head and front half of the body are large while those on the hind half are smaller and smooth.<sup id=\"cite_ref-FishBase_2-0\" class=\"reference\"><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Grey_triggerfish#cite_note-FishBase-2\">[2]<\/a><\/sup><sup id=\"cite_ref-FLMNH_3-0\" class=\"reference\"><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Grey_triggerfish#cite_note-FLMNH-3\">[3]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9082\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9082\" style=\"width: 1228px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Triggerfish-2-12-17-15-e1450526683882.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9082\" src=\"http:\/\/www.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Triggerfish-2-12-17-15-e1450526683882.jpg\" alt=\"Triggerfish, Offshore Wreck, Sanibel Fishing &amp; Captiva Fishing, Friday, 12-18-15 ~ #Sanibel #Captiva.\" width=\"1228\" height=\"1443\" srcset=\"https:\/\/old.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Triggerfish-2-12-17-15-e1450526683882.jpg 1228w, https:\/\/old.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Triggerfish-2-12-17-15-e1450526683882-690x811.jpg 690w, https:\/\/old.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Triggerfish-2-12-17-15-e1450526683882-980x1152.jpg 980w, https:\/\/old.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Triggerfish-2-12-17-15-e1450526683882-255x300.jpg 255w, https:\/\/old.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Triggerfish-2-12-17-15-e1450526683882-768x902.jpg 768w, https:\/\/old.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Triggerfish-2-12-17-15-e1450526683882-871x1024.jpg 871w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1228px) 100vw, 1228px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-9082\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Triggerfish, Offshore Wreck, Sanibel Fishing &amp; Captiva Fishing, Friday, 12-18-15 ~ #Sanibel #Captiva.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This fish is predominantly pale grey, greenish-grey or yellowish-brown.

The body color fades a little as the animal gets older: juveniles are more colorful.<sup id=\"cite_ref-FishBase_2-1\" class=\"reference\"><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Grey_triggerfish#cite_note-FishBase-2\">[2]<\/a><\/sup><sup id=\"cite_ref-FLMNH_3-1\" class=\"reference\"><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Grey_triggerfish#cite_note-FLMNH-3\">[3]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7346\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7346\" style=\"width: 1638px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Triggerfish-3-12-31-14-e1455467259954.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7346\" src=\"http:\/\/www.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Triggerfish-3-12-31-14-e1455467259954.jpg\" alt=\"Triggerfish, 1-2-14, Sanibel Fishing &amp; Captiva Fishing &amp; Fort Myers Fishing Charters &amp; Guide Service.\" width=\"1638\" height=\"1255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/old.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Triggerfish-3-12-31-14-e1455467259954.jpg 1638w, https:\/\/old.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Triggerfish-3-12-31-14-e1455467259954-690x529.jpg 690w, https:\/\/old.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Triggerfish-3-12-31-14-e1455467259954-980x751.jpg 980w, https:\/\/old.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Triggerfish-3-12-31-14-e1455467259954-300x230.jpg 300w, https:\/\/old.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Triggerfish-3-12-31-14-e1455467259954-768x588.jpg 768w, https:\/\/old.captivafishing.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Triggerfish-3-12-31-14-e1455467259954-1024x785.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1638px) 100vw, 1638px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7346\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Triggerfish, 1-2-14, Sanibel Fishing &amp; Captiva Fishing &amp; Fort Myers Fishing Charters &amp; Guide Service.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The grey triggerfish is principally a fish of shallow waters in the western Atlantic Ocean. Its native range extends from Nova Scotia to the Caribbean Sea, the Gulf of Mexico and Bermuda, and southwards to Argentina. It is typically found over hard bottoms on reefs and rocky areas, in lagoons and in bays, at depths down to about 55\u00a0m (180\u00a0ft). It is also found on the other side of the Atlantic, around the British Isles, in the Mediterranean Sea and off the coast of Angola.<sup id=\"cite_ref-FLMNH_3-2\" class=\"reference\"><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Grey_triggerfish#cite_note-FLMNH-3\">[3]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0It may have crossed the Atlantic as a result of the movement of water in the\u00a0<a title=\"Gulf Stream\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Gulf_Stream\">Gulf Stream<\/a>.

If threatened, the fish can work its way into a protective crevice and wedge itself in place by erecting its front dorsal spine. It is difficult to dislodge from this position. The second spine is connected to the first and when it is depressed, it triggers the unlocking of the first spine.<sup id=\"cite_ref-FLMNH_3-3\" class=\"reference\"><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Grey_triggerfish#cite_note-FLMNH-3\">[3]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n<p>The grey triggerfish is a\u00a0<a class=\"mw-redirect\" title=\"Demersal\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Demersal\">demersal<\/a>\u00a0species and feeds on bottom-dwelling invertebrates such as\u00a0<a title=\"Shrimp\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Shrimp\">shrimps<\/a>,\u00a0<a title=\"Crab\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Crab\">crabs<\/a>,\u00a0<a class=\"mw-redirect\" title=\"Mollusc\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mollusc\">mollusks<\/a>,\u00a0<a title=\"Sea urchin\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sea_urchin\">sea urchins<\/a>,\u00a0<a title=\"Sand dollar\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sand_dollar\">sand dollars<\/a>,\u00a0<a title=\"Starfish\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Starfish\">starfish<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a title=\"Sea cucumber\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sea_cucumber\">sea cucumbers<\/a>. It has strong teeth specialized for making holes in hard-shelled prey. An interesting feeding behavior has been observed, in which the fish positions itself vertically above a sandy seabed and puffs a stream of water out of its mouth. This disturbs the\u00a0<a title=\"Substrate (biology)\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Substrate_(biology)\">substrate<\/a>\u00a0and may reveal something edible. Further puffs expose more, and the prey item is gripped with the fish&#8217;s sharp teeth and removed from the seabed. If it is a sand dollar, the fish drops it and picks it up again several times until the prey lands upside down. The fish then adopts its vertical stance once more and attacks the middle with closed jaws, crushing the soft central area.
