  • Sornos, on 10/05/2008, -0/+6The Lionfish, flounder, gurnard, and clown fish aren't deep sea creatures, but I'll forgive them for being cool.
    There are a few things missing though.
    Like a video of a goblin shark.

  • alex7575, on 10/05/2008, -0/+1"The tripod fish gets its name from the three extra-long fins extending from its body. It uses these like stilts to stand on the bottom, keeping its body just above the surface of seafloor"

    It was literally killing me trying to figure out why in heaven and hell they would name that fish "the tripod fish". I mean, I'm looking at the picture and coulnd't for the life of me figure it out...
  • itstodd, on 10/05/2008, -0/+1where is the ever terrifying buckyobama fish? I hear they lay in the dark just waiting for the opportunity to zap the moronic white sucker fish.
