Lowfin chub
- Scientific name: Kyphosus vaigiensis
- Hawaïan name: Nenue
The lowfin chub is a very common fish in hawaiian waters. Contrary to many others, it doesn't show bright colours but a simple grey which darkens near the dorsal fin and the tail. It's a carnivorous fish which nevertheless feeds on seeweeds if necessary.
