I think a lot of these deep-sea fish tend to look more weird/horrifying because they're all puffy/bloated from the pressure differential between the surface and their natural deep-sea environment.

Damn_Underscore 05/13/21 2:02:58 PM #9:	littlebro07 posted... How the fuck did it get there? Arent they native to the deepest parts of the ocean? Happy #MPA Monday! Last Friday morning an incredible deep sea fish washed up on shore in Crystal Cove State Parks Marine Protected Area (MPA). There are more than 200 species of angler fish worldwide and this particular fish is most likely the Pacific Football Fish. Only females possess a long stalk on the head with bioluminescent tips used as a lure to entice prey in the darkness of waters as deep as 3,000 feet! Their teeth, like pointed shards of glass, are transparent and their large mouth is capable of sucking up and swallowing prey the size of their own body. While females can reach lengths of 24 inches males only grow to be about an inch long and their sole purpose is to find a female and help her reproduce. Males latch onto the female with their teeth and become sexual parasites, eventually coalescing with the female until nothing is left of their form but their testes for reproduction. Wild! To see an actual angler fish intact is very rare and it is unknown how or why the fish ended up on the shore. Seeing this strange and fascinating fish is a testament to the diversity of marine life lurking below the waters surface in Californias MPAs and as scientists continue to learn more about these deep sea creatures its important to reflect on how much is still to be learned from our wonderful ocean.

PBusted 05/15/21 3:03:35 AM #35:	@Srk700 @littlebro07 Yeah that's an "interesting fact" that I wish I didn't see. Clownfish also have an interesting reproduction process. Also in emergencies theyll resort to incest. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/07/190723104127.htm If they decide to become the dominant female. Clownfish communities live in a harem led by a female dominant and a male dominant with all the lesser fish being male fish. If there isnt a female dominant, a male fish will turn female to become the female dominant. Clams also change genders. http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2014/11/clams-reproduce/ <cite>PBusted posted [p:953923767] in Angler fis...
