🌊 The High-Performance King: Vanjaram (Seer Fish)
| Feature | The Advanced Breakdown |
| Habitat | Blue-Water Nomads; while they love deep coastal waters, they are "epipelagic," meaning they stay in the top 200m where the sun fuels the food chain. |
| Diet | The "Protein-Only" Diet; they are high-speed predators that target oily, energy-dense snacks like Sardines and Anchovies to fuel their massive energy needs. |
| Lifespan | The 20-Year Club; while most caught are "teenagers" (3–6 years), some old kings in the wild can survive up to 2 decades if they dodge the nets. |
| Breeding | Monsoon Magic; they are "broadcast spawners." A single large female doesn't just lay eggs; she releases a "cloud of millions" to ensure the species survives. |
| Location | Indo-Pacific Royalty; they dominate the Indian Ocean, patrolling from the Red Sea down to Southeast Asia and the Australian coast. |
| Availability | Post-Monsoon Peak; while found year-round, the "Gold Rush" happens right after the breeding season (Late Aug–Feb) when they are at their fattest and tastiest. |
