Some of the largest include the groupers, and the giant hump head wrasse. Sharks are also fish, so really the largest fish on the reef are sharks, but most are not permanantly on the reef.

The Great Barrier Reef is home to a diverse range of marine life, including fish, coral, turtles, and rays. Some specific examples of animals that live near or on the reef are clownfish, humphead wrasse, and green sea turtles.
The food chain in the Great Barrier Reef consists of primary producers like algae, phytoplankton, and seagrasses, which are eaten by herbivorous animals like fish and turtles. These herbivores are then preyed upon by carnivorous animals such as sharks, rays, and larger fish. At the top of the food chain are apex predators like sharks and killer whales.
Some coral reef fish, such as certain species of gobies and blennies, feed on small amounts of bacteria found in the sediment and on coral surfaces. These bacteria provide a source of nutrients for these fish and help them to maintain a balanced diet. However, bacteria are not the primary source of food for most coral reef fish.
