Norway haddock

The Norway haddock, scientifically known as Sebastes viviparus, is a species of redfish found in the North Atlantic Ocean. It is a commercially important food fish belonging to the scorpionfish family. This fish is perch-like in form, characterized by a large mouth, large eyes, and spines on its head and cheeks. The Norway haddock, along with other red-colored scorpionfish like Sebastes norvegicus, is also referred to as Norway haddock in Europe. This species typically grows to about 25 cm (10 inches) in length. Unlike some related species that are oviparous (egg-laying), the Norway haddock is viviparous, meaning it gives birth to live young.12
