Sometimes I wonder if deep sea fish aren't really Aliens from another planet...Well, at least Macropinna microstoma doesn't have zombie eyes and Giger-esque teeth like the deep sea fish in my profile.
In fact it's rather cute, in a revulsive-ectoplasmic-anime-character-from-hell sorta way.
Would you like to know more?

Man, way cool.
Such an interesting animal. Nature is amazing, pure and simple. There is so much more out there that we have no idea about. This creature should be the next feature on "Monsterquest."

They don't seem to have enough deep sea creatures on that show. You can never have enough deep sea creatures.
is kinda remarkable... something really interesting. I don't think my diving will go that deep to see this kind of fish. By the way, how small is the fish?
Hi Kennhyn, welcome to Fresh Brainz!
The fish shown in the video is about 11 cm long and discovered at the depth of 770 m. The researchers encountered five specimens ranging from 3.6 to 11.6 cm long.

Hello!!! www.freshbrainz.com is one of the most excellent informational websites of its kind. I enjoy reading it every day. Keep it that way.
The author of www.freshbrainz.com has written an excellent article. You have made your point and there is not much to argue about. It is like the following universal truth that you can not argue with: If there really is a God who created the entire universe with all of its glories, and He decides to deliver a message to humanity, He will not use, as His messenger, a person on cable TV with a bad hairstyle. Thanks for the info.
