Orange-red Flesh in God and Haddock

Only rarely is Atlantic cod found with orange-red coloured skin and flesh. Astaxanthin and zeaxanthin, in the proportion of 2:1, were found to be responsible for the pigmentation of the flesh of such a specimen. Zeaxanthin was the only pigment detected in the flesh of a similarly pigmented haddock.
