Oh, it's a fish. There's a fish straight down, going off the bottom of the screen right now.
Wow. That's quite a big fish.
Alright, Chris.
Okay. This is one of our favorite fish.
This is a type of anglerfish, in the family Lophiidae.
It's an ambush predator. They sit very motionless, they hardly ever move unless they're touched.
And it waits until prey comes to it and then gulps its prey.
Bruce, the scale on this suggests that it's quite big --approaching 20 to 30 centimeters.
Is that typical for this kind of fish?
These grow to a larger, bulkier size than a lot of the fish that we see.
Interesting. But yeah, you're right. It is an exceptionally large fish for this environment.
