The most amazing fish in the world

In all the waters of the globe, whether it be the ocean, sea, lake or river, many and many living beings live. Many people have never even heard of the existence of some. For centuries, the study of aquatic fauna was impossible due to the lack of technology and equipment. The most famous explorer of the ocean is undoubtedly Jacques Yves Cousteau. It was only after his invention of scuba gear that a close and closer study of the sea and ocean floor became possible. Based on his invention, many other devices for diving into the depths of the sea were developed. Here are collected the most amazing fish in the world, some species were discovered by Cousteau himself.

10. Scorpion Ambona

Scorpion Ambon. This fish lives at the bottom of sea waters. She spends most of her life burrowing under the sand, so she disguises herself and hunts. This amazing fish is easy to recognize by its bright purple color, sometimes turning into pale purple. She can change color, which is a necessary quality for disguise. And animals disguise themselves not only to hunt, but also to protect themselves from other predators. First discovered in 1856. Allocate her growths above the eyes in the form of eyebrows. Once you see her, you will not confuse this extravagant look with anything.

9. Fish - frog

Psychedelic View opened quite recently, in 2009. I can’t even believe that in the 21st century there are still unknown species of animals. From one name it becomes clear that this is an unusual fish. Painted bright orange with white stripes. It is the direction of the stripes that justifies the first part of this name. And the “frog” because the fins and tail of the fish are more like the legs of some animal than a fin. The blue eyes of the fish are directed forward, which gives the impression that it is a mammal. Thanks to the fins, she can crawl along the bottom, as well as push off and move in jumps.

8. Rag-picker

The rag-picker. This amazing fish got its name due to its camouflage outfit. Throughout the body and head are processes resembling algae leaves. Some may confuse them with fins, although they have some similarities, but they serve solely for camouflage. So she hunts for small shrimps and hides from other predators. This species of fish lives off the coast of Australia in the waters of the Indian Ocean. The diet of fish also includes plankton and algae, among which it actually lives. She has no teeth, so she swallows her prey whole.

7.

This type of unusual fish was discovered in 1758. The fish was named so because of the shape of the body. It resembles a disk, the fish is as if flattened from the sides. The tail is almost imperceptible, all fins fused together. Fish - the moon is very unadapted to physical exertion, adults cannot overcome a strong current. The fish can grow to gigantic sizes and weigh over one and a half tons. Therefore, in addition to plankton, the diet of the “moon” also includes jellyfish, eel larvae and squid. Depending on the habitat, it can also feed on salps (underwater "lanterns"), eel larvae and ctenophores.

6. Broad-nosed chimera

Broad-nosed chimera. Despite the fact that the fish was discovered more than a century ago, it is extremely little studied. Maybe because of her disgustingly jelly-like appearance. The habitat of the chimera is the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. It lies motionless at a depth of about 1.5 kilometers, buried in the sand. The diet of a peculiar fish is made up of mollusks, as well as everything that floats by. She leads a very sedentary lifestyle.

5. The cloak-bearer

The frillbearer. Another little-studied fish species is the frilled shark. This type of shark, discovered in 1884, looks more like a sea eel or a snake. This is a very rare species and their number is about a hundred individuals. The serpentine body of the shark is covered with stripes; these are the gills hidden by the skin. The shark has 12 of them, six on each side. The first pair is interconnected and forms a single cavity. Like other individuals, the jaw of the Frilled Man is studded with teeth, but not small ones in several rows. 12 pairs of teeth, each of which is something like a Christmas tree branch, with many sharp formations.

4. Indonesian coelacanth

Indonesian coelacanth. Considered extinct until 1999, this amazing fish is the most ancient species on the globe. Two types of coelacanth live on earth. Their divergence period is approximately 40 million years. To date, only a dozen individuals have been discovered. Until 2006, only four individuals were known, two were caught by fishermen and two more fish were observed from a bathyscaphe. In 2007, a fifth individual was discovered. The fisherman who found it fenced it with a net in the shallow water of the sea. The individual lived for about 15 hours, although it was believed that in the upper layers of the sea she lives no more than two hours.

3 Hairy Monkfish

Hairy monkfish. On the seabed, especially at great depths, live very strange and scary animals for the layman. One of them is the Hairy anglerfish, which belongs to the anglerfish family. At a depth of more than a kilometer, where sunlight does not pass, anglers attract potential prey with a luminous growth on their forehead. Since there are not many living creatures at a depth, the fish rushes and eats everything that comes in its way, even there are more predators than itself. For this, her jaws are developed and there are sharp teeth. The harsh living conditions dictate their own rules, this even applies to reproduction, the male of this unique fish betrays his secretions to the female through the blood.

2.

Discovered in 1926, this fantastic inhabitant of the deep sea is called the ugliest animal in the world. There is nothing in the water yet, but on land, jelly is a prominent creature rather unpleasant. The weight of the fish can reach 10 kilograms, the length is about 50 centimeters. It usually feeds on plankton, small crustaceans or shrimps. She just lies at the bottom with her mouth open, and waits for the victim to swim into it. Although scientists know very little about the reproduction of the "blob", it has been revealed that she is a very caring parent. This type of fish protects its fry until they mature and begin to find food on their own.

1. Smallmouth macropinna

Smallmouth macropinna. This individual is unusual in that it has a dome-shaped transparent formation in the head area, somewhat reminiscent of a spacesuit. Although it was discovered in 1939, very little is known about it to this day. One of the reasons, the habitat of this amazing fish, the great sea depths, is generally little studied. Until 2009, it was a mystery why the fish's eyes point straight up. Previously discovered individuals fell into fishing nets, when rising to the surface, the transparent shell on the head of the fish collapsed or deformed due to which, the researchers came to the wrong conclusions. But observing the species in its natural environment clarified this issue. The transparent shell is filled with a special fluid that protects the visual organs.

Recently, the hobby of aquarism is rapidly gaining momentum. Therefore, it is not at all surprising that every owner of an artificial reservoir wants to make it unique by populating it with all kinds of inhabitants. However, there are a huge number of unusual fish that are not often found in domestic vessels.

However, it is they who not only increase the prestige of the owner several times, but also become the pearl of his collection. And in today's article, we'll talk about which of the rarest aquarium fish are of greatest interest to owners of artificial reservoirs.

Chinese policeman

This name has not yet come into common use in our state. Therefore, most aquarists continue to call it the Asian Myxocyrinus, Chukchana or Frigate. First of all, these aquarium fish stand out for their unique body structure, suitable for a bottom-dwelling lifestyle. So, it is immediately worth noting her sharply raised back, somewhat reminiscent of a rhombus in shape and with a pommel in the form of a long dorsal fin and a flat stomach. The body color is made in light brown tones. It is worth emphasizing that females are somewhat larger than males, but have a less bright color tint.

As for the content, these fish feel great in standard aquarium conditions. It also does not cause any special difficulties and their feeding. This is how you can feed them:

1. Live and frozen food.
2. Sinking granules.
3. Tablets.

It is especially worth noting that many experts recommend adding some herbal supplements to their diet. This is due to the fact that, due to their slowness and peaceful nature, the Chinese policeman can often snatch food, thereby leaving him hungry. The maximum size of adults is 150-200 mm. An interesting fact is that when the lights are off, these fish remain motionless in the same place where the darkness found it. Information about breeding in captivity is scattered.

These aquarium fish are representatives of one of the smallest families of proboscis. They are found mainly in Africa and Southeast Asia. They are characterized by an original snake-like and cylinder-like body shape with a length of 150 to 700 mm. It is also worth noting separately the unusual appearance of their upper jaws, equipped with a small process that can be mistaken for a proboscis. These fish do not like publicity and spend most of their time holed up in all sorts of shelters or shelters. They are active mainly at night. It is worth emphasizing that these fish feel great in water with high salinity.

Also, when planning the breeding of mastatsembel, it is necessary to use only soft soil in the aquarium, into which representatives of this species of proboscis are so fond of burrowing. If they are deprived of such an opportunity, then the fish will be in constant stress, which will significantly affect their health and can lead to the most irreparable consequences.

They need to be fed only live food. It is also worth noting that the largest mastatzembelas can eat smaller fish.

Important! An artificial reservoir must be constantly covered to exclude even the slightest possibility of these fish crawling out.

These fish are distinguished by their long fins located on the back and with velvety black spots scattered over them with small gold-colored rims. Also, their body itself is painted in a delicate woody shade with marble stains. The snout itself is slightly pointed and has a small antennae. The male differs from the female in having a flat abdomen. Tubifex can be used as food. It also gets along well with almost all the inhabitants of an artificial reservoir. As for the content, the recommended water temperature is 22-28 degrees, and the hardness does not matter.

To create the most comfortable conditions, it is recommended to add 3g. salt per 1 liter. water. Vessels with a capacity of 200 liters have proven themselves best as a spawning ground. and mandatory hormone injections. Also recently, precedents for the spawning of these fish without artificial stimulation have begun to arise more and more often, which indicates the beginning of the adaptation of Macrognats to reproduction in aquarium conditions.

Glass Perch (Chanda Ranga)

These original fish are often found in fresh or salt water in Thailand, India or Burma. As a rule, the largest individuals of Chanda rank in artificial reservoirs can reach up to 40 mm in length. As for the shape of the body, it is slightly flattened from the sides, high and, of course, transparent. Where exactly did the name of this species come from. So, when looking at this fish, you can effortlessly examine both its internal organs and the skeleton itself.

Distinguishing a male from a female is not difficult. So, the latter has a more rounded swim bladder. In addition, if reflected light hits the male, then its shade begins to cast in gold with blue rims on the fins. Artificial reservoirs with average hydrochemical parameters are ideal for keeping glass perches.

It is especially worth emphasizing that these fish prefer bright lighting, darkish soil and dense thickets of vegetation. As food you can use:

• small bloodworm;
• enchintreya.

Given their peaceful nature, they will become excellent neighbors for fish similar in composition to the character in a common vessel. But many experts recommend using a separate container for breeding them. So, having settled “glasses” in it, you can see a rather interesting picture of the division of territory between males, followed by inviting females to a bush of small-leaved plants for spawning. Also, such a division in the territory makes it possible to exclude the “robbery” of other fish, which will make it impossible to eat newborn fry.

The only difficulty in keeping these fish is feeding the fry. So, they feed mainly on the simplest algae and nauplii diactomus.

They are the most popular species of the beaked family. They are found mainly in the Niger Delta. The shape of the body is flattened on the sides. The anal fins and those located on the back do not differ in size and are slightly shifted towards the stalk on the tail, creating a kind of skirt. As a rule, their standard color is made in dark colors.

These fish feed on a special trunk at the end of which there is a horny cavity. Thanks to this, they can easily fish out all kinds of larvae or other invertebrates from cracks or crevices. The maximum size of adults is 250 mm, but in most cases these fish are much smaller. The ideal temperature range is from 25 to 30 degrees. Breeding in captivity has not yet been mastered.

These fish will become a real decoration of any artificial reservoir. Representatives of this small bone-speaking family boast a magnificent silver color, an elongated and slightly flattened body shape on the sides and a rather large head and mouth, somewhat reminiscent of a ladle. This is especially strong when these fish tear off their mouths. In their natural habitat, these fish do not leave the coastal zone, preying on fallen insects. Also, they will not refuse as food from small-sized fish.

It is worth noting the high life expectancy of arowanas. The maximum length of adults in a vessel can reach up to 500 mm. They are distinguished by high intelligence, which allows them to recognize their owner and eat from his hands. A variety of foods can be used as feed:

1. Mollusks.
2. Worms.
3. soft insects.
4. Fish particles.

But we must not forget that the food must necessarily be waterfowl, since if these fish experience certain difficulties in getting food from the water column, then getting food from the bottom will be a waste of time for them.

In addition, many aquarists believe that keeping an arowana will bring good luck to the home.

Author - SASHOKI. This is a quote from this post.

In the middle of the last century, they actively began to study the underwater world. Millions of different species live at the bottom of the world's oceans, many of which are still unknown to us.
Look at a selection of rare fish that mankind managed to discover.

How not to make the mistakes that everyone does!

1. Ambon Scorpionfish, lat. Pteroidichthys amboinensis.

Opened in 1856. Easily recognizable by the huge "eyebrows" - specific growths above the eyes. Able to change color and shed. Conducts "guerrilla" hunting - disguised at the bottom and waiting for the victim. Not uncommon and quite well studied, but her extravagant appearance is simply not to be missed! (Roger Steene/Conservation International)

2. Psychedelic frogfish (eng. Psychedelic Frogfish, lat. Histiophryne psychedelica).

Opened in 2009. A very unusual fish - the caudal fin is curved to the side, the pectoral fins are modified and look like the paws of land animals. The head is large, wide-spaced eyes are directed forward, like in vertebrates, due to which the fish has a kind of "facial expression". The color of the fish is yellow or reddish with sinuous white-blue stripes radiating in different directions from the blue eyes. Unlike other fish that swim, this species moves as if by jumping, pushing off the bottom with its pectoral fins and pushing water out of the gill slits, creating jet thrust. The tail of the fish is bent to the side and cannot directly direct the movement of the body, therefore it oscillates from side to side. Also, the fish can crawl along the bottom with the help of pectoral fins, turning them over like legs. (David Hall/EOL Rapid Response Team)

3. Rag-picker (eng. Leafy Seadragon, lat. Phycodurus eques).

Opened in 1865. Representatives of this species of fish are notable for the fact that their entire body and head are covered with processes that mimic the thallus of algae. Although these processes look like fins, they do not take part in swimming, they serve for camouflage (both when hunting shrimp and for protection from enemies). It lives in the waters of the Indian Ocean, washing southern, southeastern and southwestern Australia, as well as northern and eastern Tasmania. Feeds on plankton, small shrimps, algae. Having no teeth, the rag-picker swallows food whole. (lecate/Flickr)

4. Moon-fish (eng. Ocean Sunfish, lat. Mola mola).

Opened in 1758. The laterally compressed body is extremely high and short, which gives the fish an extremely strange appearance: it resembles a disk in shape. The tail is very short, wide and truncated; dorsal, caudal and anal fins are interconnected. The skin of the moon fish is thick and elastic, covered with small bony tubercles. You can often see the moon-fish lying on its side on the surface of the water. An adult moon fish is a very poor swimmer, unable to overcome a strong current. It feeds on plankton, as well as squid, eel larvae, salps, ctenophores and jellyfish. It can reach gigantic sizes of several tens of meters and weigh 1.5 tons. (Franco Banfi)

5. Broad-nosed chimera (English Broadnose chimaera, lat. Rhinochimaera atlantica).

Opened in 1909. Utterly disgusting-looking jelly-like fish. It lives on the deep bottom of the Atlantic Ocean and feeds on mollusks. Very poorly studied. (Jay Burnett, NOAA/NMFS/NEFSC)

6. Frilled Shark, lat. Chlamydoselachus anguineus.

Opened in 1884. These sharks look much more like a strange sea snake or eel than their closest relatives. In the frilled shark, the gill openings, of which there are six on each side, are covered with skin folds. In this case, the membranes of the first gill slit cross the throat of the fish and are connected to each other, forming a wide skin lobe. Along with the goblin shark, it is one of the rarest sharks on the planet. No more than a hundred specimens of these fish are known. They are very poorly studied. (Awashima Marine Park/Getty Images)

7. Indonesian coelacanth (English Indonesian Coelacanth, lat. Latimeria menadoensis).

Opened in 1999. Living fossil and probably the oldest fish on Earth. Before the discovery of the first representative of the order of coelicans, which includes coelacanth, he was considered completely extinct. The time of divergence of two modern species of coelacanths is 30–40 Ma. No more than a dozen were caught alive. (Pearson - Benjamin Cummings)

8. Hairy monkfish (Eng. Hairy Angler, lat. Caulophryne polynema).

Opened in 1930. Very strange and scary fish that live in the deep bottom, where there is no sunlight - from 1 km and deeper. To lure the inhabitants of the deep sea, it uses a special luminous outgrowth on the forehead, characteristic of the entire detachment of anglerfish. Thanks to a special metabolism and extremely sharp teeth, he can eat anything that comes across, even if the victim is many times larger and is also a predator. It reproduces no less strangely than it looks and eats - due to the unusually harsh conditions and the rarity of fish, the male (ten times smaller than the female) attaches itself to the flesh of his chosen one and transfers everything he needs through the blood. (BBC)

9. Drop fish (eng. Blobfish, lat. Psychrolutes marcidus).

Opened in 1926. Often mistaken for a joke. In fact, this is a very real species of deep-sea bottom marine fish of the Psycholute family, which on the surface take on a “jelly” appearance with a “sad expression”. It is poorly studied, but this is enough to recognize it as one of the most bizarre. Pictured is a copy of the Australian Museum. (Kerryn Parkinson/Australian Museum)

10. Smallmouth macropinna (eng., lat. Macropinna microstoma) - winner for quirkiness.

Opened in 1939. It lives at a very great depth, therefore it is poorly studied. In particular, the principle of fish vision was not entirely clear. It was supposed that she must experience very great difficulties in view of the fact that she sees only upwards. Only in 2009 was the structure of the eye of this fish fully studied. Apparently, when trying to study it earlier, the fish simply could not stand the change in pressure. The most notable feature of this species is the transparent dome-shaped shell that covers its head from above and to the sides, and the large, usually upward-pointing, cylindrical eyes that are found under this shell. A dense and elastic overlying sheath is attached to the dorsal scales at the back, and on the sides to the wide and transparent periocular bones, which provide protection for the organs of vision. This overlying structure is usually lost (or at least severely damaged) when fish are brought to the surface in trawls and nets, so its existence was not known until recently. Under the covering shell is a chamber filled with a transparent liquid, in which, in fact, the eyes of the fish are located; the eyes of living fish are painted bright green and are separated by a thin bony septum, which, extending backwards, expands and accommodates the brain. Anterior to each eye, but behind the mouth, is a large, rounded pocket that contains an olfactory receptor rosette. That is, what at first glance in photographs of live fish seems to be eyes, is actually an olfactory organ. The green color is caused by the presence of a specific yellow pigment in them. It is believed that this pigment provides a special filtering of light coming from above and reduces its brightness, which allows the fish to distinguish the bioluminescence of potential prey.

Original entry and comments on

Among the variety of fish living in the oceans, seas, rivers and lakes, as well as in aquariums, there are very expensive and rare species that cost a lot of money.

Fugu fish (price $ 100-500)

Fugu, also called ball fish, is recognized by culinary experts as one of the most dangerous to use as food. Only trained culinary masters are allowed to cut it using a special technology, only then it becomes available to fans of restaurant extreme sports and exotic dishes. Due to the complexity of cooking, a small portion of this fish can cost up to $500. No wonder the Japanese consider this delicacy the most expensive in their country.

Goldfish (price $ 1.5 thousand)

No one would refuse a goldfish in their property, even if it results in a round sum. In the waters of the South Korean island of Cheyu, there are fish with scales that cast a stunning golden tint. But the price of this treasure reaches 1.5 thousand dollars. Very cool!

Beluga albino (price $ 2.5 thousand)

Fine caviar of albino beluga fish is appreciated everywhere. Speaking of the most expensive fish in the world, it is worth noting why they are highly valued. You can say about the albino beluga - due to the fact that it spawns only once a century. Its weight can reach one ton. And for 100 grams of her caviar, you will have to pay 2.5 thousand dollars. Luxurious delicacy!

Arowana (price $ 80 thousand)

The beautiful arowana aquarium fish, also called the dragon fish, is highly valued by fish collectors and admirers of the unique inhabitants of the seas. According to legend, the owner of such a fish is guaranteed happiness. These fish, which belong to the oldest species, can be seen in the aquariums decorating the offices of the world's largest corporations.

Tuna weighing 108 kilograms (price $ 178 thousand)

The tuna, unique in size, is called the champion - because of its price paid by the buyer. Large tunas are not a rare prey for fishermen. Soon, a new record was set at an auction in Tokyo.

Tuna weighing 200 kilograms (price $ 230 thousand)

Another record holder was also sold in Tokyo. Weighing almost twice as much tuna was estimated at 230 thousand dollars. This was the record for the year 2000 of this auction.

Russian sturgeon (price $289 thousand)

The most expensive of the Russian sturgeons is recognized as a specimen caught back in 1924 by local fishermen in the Tikhaya Pine River. The sturgeon "pulled" 1.227 tons, while he gave caviar - 245 kilograms. It is for this caviar of excellent quality that sturgeons are ranked among the most valuable fish in the world. At today's auction, that sturgeon would sell for at least $289,000.

Platinum arowana (price $400 thousand)

A unique mutant fish called the platinum arowana stands out from the dragonfish family with its unique coloration. The owner of this phenomenon, who lives in Singapore, categorically does not agree to part with his favorite, despite the big money offered.

Tuna weighing 269 kilograms (price $ 730 thousand)

The record holder among tuna is a specimen that was caught and sold in 2012. Due to its weight and its price - it sold for $730,000 - this tuna is considered the largest and most expensive in history. And it is also sold in the Tokyo market.

Bluefin tuna, weighing 222 kilograms (price $ 1.76 million)

The champion's podium among the most expensive fish is occupied by bluefin tuna, which has reached a weight of 222 kilograms, for which the buyer paid over 1.5 million dollars. He also broke his own earlier record for buying heavyweight tuna. A small piece of this record-breaking tuna costs 20 euros.

The underwater world fascinates with its beauty, and especially with its extraordinary inhabitants of the depths. The most unique and colorful fish became known recently. Representatives of the underwater world are extremely graceful and original. It is not surprising that the contemplation of swimming fish brings a person into a state of peace and tranquility.

Royal centropig

This small fish leads a benthic lifestyle. Centropig has a very bright color and looks quite impressive in large aquariums. For the best comfort of the fish, it should have shelters and live stones overgrown with algae.

lyre-tailed angel decorated

This is one of the most beautiful fish that is bred for a reef aquarium. The lyre-tailed angel has an elongated body, the tail is lyre-shaped. It has a silver color, and wide dark stripes go from the back of the head to the tail. They are quite whimsical in care - they require good food and water, as well as a large space.

Royal angelfish

This bright colorful fish is medium in size. It is slightly flattened on the sides, and the mouth resembles a bird's beak. The angelfish differs from other individuals in its peaceful nature, but it is difficult to keep in captivity. The fish loves a lot of space, and adaptation is usually difficult.

radiant lionfish

The radiant lionfish is one of the most unusual and spectacular fish. The pale red body of the fish is covered with vertical rows of white, black and red stripes. A large number of spikes on the body give a formidable look, and their injection is quite painful. They do best in large aquariums.

moorish idol

The Mauritanian idol has an unusual wedge-shaped body and a bright color, these fish are considered one of the most beautiful. The fish are very demanding on the conditions of detention. They need a large aquarium and a varied diet.

tangerine

The mandarin fish is very beautiful and is very popular among aquarists. Tangerines love to live in the lower layers of the water, they are very picky in terms of keeping.

Picasso triggerfish rectangular

Picasso's triggerfish is a rather large fish that will become an aquarium decoration. The length of its body is about 30 cm. A feature of the fish is that the highly placed eyes rotate independently of each other. The triggerfish has rather sharp teeth, so you need to be careful with the fish.

Surgeon blue royal

The surgeon blue royal is very beautiful due to his bright color, he also has an attractive body shape. These are quite large fish with a body length of up to 20 cm. Royal blue tangs mainly prefer plant food.

Six-banded wrasse

The six-striped wrasse is another bright and beautiful representative of the water depths. He leads a diurnal lifestyle, can live both alone and with other fish. It got its name thanks to six bright characteristic stripes. He loves shelter, so the fish needs loose soil in which it burrows. The six-banded wrasse destroys various harmful gastropods.

Tetraodon aquarium helicopter fish

Tetraodon is an original and interesting fish. She swallows water or air and from this becomes like a ball. The length of the tetraodon is from 6 to 25 cm. In the aquarium, they always determine their territory, live there and do not allow “strangers” to come to them.

mastatzembela

Large and massive fish - mastatsembela - can grow up to 60 cm in length. They are distinguished by their bright and unusual color.

Fighting fish "Cockerel"

The Cockerel or Fighting Fish is a small aquarium fish with bright colors and long veiled fins. This fish is unpretentious in maintenance, it can even live without aeration. It is one of the most popular types of aquarium pets.

It is worth noting that the males of "cockerels" are quite aggressive and do not get along with other individuals in the same aquarium.

Lionhead fish

These fish are the pioneers of aquariums. Their ancestors are Chinese silver carp. This fish appeared due to selection.

butterfly fish

Unusually beautiful butterfly fish live in South African waters and in the Red Sea. They can sometimes be found in Southern Japan and Hawaii. The color of the fish is a combination of yellow, white and black, and there are several vertical lines on the body.

Clown fish

Clownfish has a bright orange coloration with black and white stripes. It is the prototype of the cartoon character for children Nemo. The fish lives in the Indian and Pacific oceans. Despite its beauty, it is quite a strong aggressor.

parrot fish

The parrot fish has a jaw shaped like a bird's beak. She gnaws at coral reefs with her mouth.

These fish are both aquarium and large specimens that grow up to two meters in length. There are different colors - mostly bright tropical shades prevail.

Sea Horse

The seahorse is distinguished by its original and interesting unexpected appearance. He looks like a small horse. It moves head up, which also distinguishes it from other fish.

bicolor angel

Bicolor angel or centropig bicolor is a bright and very popular fish in its kind. It can be found in the depths of the waters of the Indian and Pacific Oceans, as well as in Africa, Indonesia and in the waters of the Philippines. As a rule, they live alone or in pairs near the reef or in lagoons. Its hindquarters are an intense blue, while its tail, head, and foreparts are a bright lemon color. There is also a bright blue spot on the head.
