This is the Anglerfish.
This fish might be scary if you ever caught one, but the truth is, this fish even does a little fishing of it's own!(Thus explaining it's name) The long growth on it's head illuminates giving off a light which attracts it's prey, and being at these kind of depths, any light is noticeable no matter how small.
As the prey makes contact with the fish's lure, the Anglerfish consumes it's catch, Ironically this is a fish that fishes!


This fish lives all over the world, but found in different forms, ones such as the above, dwelling in the deep, while others like the Frogfish or Monkfish preffering to swim closer to the surface.

This is the Puffer fish. This delightful fish is part of the Tetraodontidae family, and is known for its balloon like shape. The truth about this fish is that when in a relaxed state, it looks like any normal streamlined fish, but when startled this fish inflates itself like a 'balloon'. This is done in hope to appear too big for the predator to consume, however it is not healthy for the fish to do so. The white-spotted puffer is notoriously known for possibly being the second most poisonous vertebrate in the world, and yet even with its extremely deadly qualities, it is seen as a Japanese delicacy. Somehow, I doubt it is a popular order!

This is the Ocean Sunfish.
Also reffered to as the 'mola mola', this freak of a fish can be found in temperate waters all over the world. In all honesty, this fish looks like something went wrong when it's parents made it, but what can I say, It makes a great fish to add to the collection! The average weight of an adult Ocean Sunfish, is around 2200 lbs but weirdly enough, this fish eats Jellyfish! Lacking in nutrition however, means that this fish has to eat a whole lot of Jelly until it's full!
