The 10 weirdest fish in the ocean ,


 The 10 weirdest fish in the ocean
1)The common fangtooth, or Anoplogaster cornuta, is a small, deep-sea fish with some of the largest teeth in the ocean, proportional to its size.

2)The Asian sheepshead wrasse is from the Labridae family of fish and is typically found in China, North Korea, South Korea, and here in Niligata, Japan. Wrasses typically have jutting, thick lips and a unique jaw structure with portruding 'foreheads' and 'chins.' The Asian sheepshead is among the largest of the wrasses and feeds on shellfish and crustaceans.

3)The obese dragonfish is a deep-water-dwelling fish with bioluminescent capabilities. Photophores, or light producing organs, cover the fish in rows and below both eyes.

4)A male jawfish is seen with eggs in his mouth in the Philippines. After mating, the female jawfish gives the eggs to the male. The fish are known as mouthbreeders.


5)A harlequin jawfish in a burrow of Hatsushima Island in Japan is seen here.

6)Squirrelfish swim near coral in the Bahamas.

7)A young box fish is seen off Sulawesi Island, Indonesia. The fish are shaped like a box and are brighter when younger. As they age, they turn blue-gray in color.

8)Parrotfish are named for their beak-like mouths and jaws.

9)Coffinfish are deep-sea fish with a short bioluminescent lure on their first dorsal fin that dangles forward over the mouth.

10)A camouflaged stonefish waits for prey on the bed of the Red Sea. Stonefish are the most venemous fish in the world and are dangerous to humans, even potentially fatal.
