Mike,
Sorry for the late response. As far as I know all the
non native fish names are transliterated. The word
"Blue" is still a phonetically rendered English word .
Although we Japanese has adopted many foreign words as
our own, these words are written in "katakana" form to
indicate their foreign roots.
