agree  Alison Jenner: I thought "red mullet" and "rock mullet" were two names for the same thing (could be wrong though!)

  -> So did I, until Edith threw in a Rotbart ;-))
neutral  EdithK: a rock mullet is Rotbart, so I don't think that the two are the same fish
4 mins
  -> Hmm, not sure, but I do know that a red mullet is a 'Seebarbe'. Never heard of a 'Rotbart' just of 'Rotbarsch' but then again am no biologist ;-))

Rotbart
