Cunner occupy a rocky reef in New England.
A bergall or cunner or conner, Tautogolabrus adspersus, is a saltwater fish found in the western Atlantic. It is edible and its musky taste is considered a delicacy by some. Specimens may grow to 12 inches though most range from 4-10. Often Bergalls are found mixed in with black fish (Tautog), living on or near the same structures. Much of the food eaten buy those Bergalls living among Black fish are the leftovers from the Black's prey.
