Strange Fishes

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, I want to open a topic about strange fishes. This due to my passion for the sea and the interest i have for fishes in general, there are so many incredible ones around!

 

I will start by posting a very rare fish, that i would very much like to see in real life:

then i will post more, also because i have a couple of "unidentified" that i spotted on a beach, one dead, one alive but not as spectacular as this one :)

Padmapani you can google the titles and see those, the man is fishing some river fish, and he incurs into a eel and in some kind of manta, it also gave me unable to see it in europe, it must be a show from the us.

Cracy fishes, I dont have any to mention, other than those big medusas, but they arent fishes.

 

The biggest ones we have locally is wells catfish in river Daugava, the biggest ones caught so far have been close to 2.5m in length and almost 90kg in weight.
