Despite its fierce name and looks, fangtooth, Anoplogaster cornuta, is small and has relatively bad eyesight. But the pronounced dark line down their sides is a lateral line that allows them to sense small movements.

Or #FreshVsSaltyFish, how about the gulper eel...
The gulper eel& #39;s adaptations make it a very successful deep-sea predator—their oversized jaws and stomach allow them to capture prey, swallowing it whole.

Ghost shark and ratfish are common names used for chimaeras, a group of unusual fishes which, despite the name, aren& #39;t really sharks at all. #TeamSalt #TeamDeepSea
Ghost shark and ratfish are common names used for chimaeras, a group of unusual fishes which, despite the name, aren& #39;t really sharks at all. #TeamSalt #TeamDeepSea
One of the oldest and yet least known groups of fishes alive today, ghost sharks are deep-dwelling and rarely seen alive. They can be found at depths to 2600 meters.

Like #sharks and #skates, their skeletons are made of cartilage, not bone. https://youtu.be/sjFdYlDMemA

It& #39;s a whale of a fish! Not really, but it is a whalefish! #FreshVsSaltyFish
These fish are spectacularly shy. We have few images of whalefish (Cetomimidae), but we were lucky enough to capture footage of this individual at 1,665 meters deep. #TeamSalt #TeamDeepSea
