What species of fish is found ONLY in South African oceans?

Coelecanth is a fish that dwells in the deepest levels of the coldest oceans. It is not a regular catch and will not be served in a restaurant anywhere as it is a protected fish. Snoek is a fish found only in the Shouth African waters, and starts as little baby fish near Windhoek and travels down the West coast. As they travel they grow, but suddenly, as they hit the Indian Ocean they dissappear !!!! As large and bountiful as they are, they actually dissappear. Many people think that they go in to an underground cave, but no one actually knows. Next year, they appear again on the West coast near Windhoek. Really a strange phenominan.

Here is one but there is a plenty eatable fish only in S.A. Die vis die galjoen, wat tot ons nasionale vis verklaar is, kom slegs in die see aan die kus van Suid-Afrika voor.

Off the top of my head, I can only think of snoek and kingklip (although this might just be a South African name for an internation fish, like kabeljou is cob)

Coelacanth is found around Mauritius – Madagascar, a fish thought to be extinct.
