The FDA allowed the change of the name, to improve the marketing of the orange roughy fish. Found only in the deep cold waters (700 fathoms) of New Zealand and Australia, the age of the orange roughy fish caught is 30 to 50 years old. Uncooked orange roughy will have a pearly white meat, with the skin side sometimes showing a orange to brown color. The moist, mild and delicate flavor of the orange roughy has made it very popular.
