Description
Weke (Mulloidichthys spp.) is the Hawaiian goatfish family — including weke ula (red goatfish), weke pueo, and others. Related to but distinct from kumu (the premium goatfish). Weke is a common, everyday reef fish. The weke nono variety is known for occasionally causing nightmares when eaten (attributed to algae toxins consumed by the fish — hence “nightmare weke”), though this is uncommon.
