The red bream (Beryx decadactylus) in its natural habitat. Red bream is not a major commercial fish in the South Atlantic, primarily because it lives so deep (20 to 1,300 meters), though it has commercial fishery potential on the Blake Plateau. Though wreckfish fishermen catch red bream from the waters over the Blake Plateau, we know little about exactly where in the water column it lives.
