Blobfish - The Weirdest Fish Ever Lived

As I promised, I'm going to tell you about something. Something that is just SO WEIRD.

....It looks like this....

I know this thing is just so weird or maybe funny at the same time. lol

But it really exists. It's called "Blobfish"

And yes, it is a FISH.

HAHAHAAHAHAHA. Hell sexy.

I've read some articles about it. I'll share.

The blobfish (Psychrolutes marcidus) is a deep sea fish of the family Psychrolutidae. Inhabiting the deep waters off the coasts of mainland Australia and Tasmania, it is rarely seen by humans.

Blobfish live at depths between 600–1,200 m (2,000–3,900 ft) where the pressure is several dozen times higher than at sea level, which would likely make gas bladders inefficient for maintaining buoyancy. Instead, the flesh of the blobfish is primarily a gelatinous mass with a density slightly less than water; this allows the fish to float above the sea floor without expending energy on swimming. Its relative lack of muscle is not a disadvantage as it primarily swallows edible matter that floats in front of it. Blobfish eat invertebrates like crabs and sea pens.

Blobfish can be caught by bottom trawling with nets as bycatch. Such trawling in the waters off Australia may threaten the blobfish in what may be its only habitat.

The blobfish is currently facing extinction due to deep-sea fishing or bottom trawling.

And this one..

Blobfish (Psychrolutes species) don’t need muscles – they have a feeding strategy that consists of sitting and waiting for something edible to go by. As well as that, their jelly-like flesh is slightly lighter than water, so they don’t need to expend energy or scarce oxygen to stop themselves from sinking towards the sea floor. This low-density flesh is an alternative to a gas-filled swim bladder, a feature of many fish in less deep waters. However, at 800 metres deep the pressure is about 80 times higher than at sea level, so any gas would be too compressed to serve the purpose. 

I know this is just so weird that "blobfish" really exists in this earth. I still can't believe it. 

Here's more pictures of it. Enjoy~ LOL

Enough of this fish.
