In the Gulfstream east of Fort Pierce, Folorida, 'Golden Tilefish' live in their burrows on the ocean floor in approx 580'-850' of water. Fished to dangerously low levels by commercial longliners in the 1970s and 80s, current regulations have eased the pressure on this species to some extent and tilefish stocks appear to be rebounding, albeit slowly.
