Your daily fish #1

The bird wrasse (Gomphosus varius)

One of my favorites

The brown one is the female, and the greenish blue one is the male

The one below is a baby.

They are canivores and eat small crustaceans, brittle stars, small fish and molusks.

They live in coral dense areas.

I love their little snouts.

I may not have a fish for today but I wanted to share:

I first saw this fish in a small aquarium in my city and I loved how it moved and its shape! It was a female.

When I later revisited after figuring out I'm trans and the fish had changed too! Now it was a male!!! ^^

And I thought: ME TOO!! ME TOO!! TWINS!!!

And that is one of the reasons that this is my favorite fish ^^

And the reason behind my 6mo hiatus lol

Today is the perfect day to share this since it's pride month, I'm trans and it's my bd!!!

I hope you continue to enjoy this blog, and happy pride month!!

You are not alone and I love you for existing 💖

Your daily fish #85

Purple-head sacura - Sacura speciosa

HAPPY PRIDE!!!

I nominate this fish as the lesbian fish of the year!

They live in the twilight zone, around 150 meters below the surface and they are extremely rare.

The name sacura speciosa comes from latin and it means beautiful cherry tree.

Look at the colors!!! 💖🤍🧡

Last year lesbian fish was the Carberry anthias

~~~

Hi hi! We start again with the LGBTQIA+ collection for June!

School may have me on a chokehold but doing the pride month fish is something I wanted to do since it means a lot to me ^^

Your daily fish #14

Sea slugs - nudibranch

They have infinite types of shapes and colors, most of them are poisonous or have a terrible taste.

Did you know that they have teeth?? They aren't teeth exactly, they are called radulas and are very small and sharp.

Those feathers you see on them are similar to those of the axolotl and they use them as gills.

I recall that I once saw one close to the shore when I was a kid and I GRABBED IT with my BARE HANDS, I was lucky it wasn't poisonous but don't worry, up until this day I still grab mysterious things that wash up on the shore...

...with my bare hands.

Your daily fish #11

Special edition: Noble giants

Oarfish - Regalecus glesne

These creatures are associated with fairytales and folklore because they sometimes end washed up on shores.

They can reach up to 8 meters and they can swim either vertically or horizontally.

They feed primarily on plankton but they can eat small creatures too.

Their bodies are gelatinous to withstand the great pressure of being a super cool fish, I mean, the water pressure.

They look so cool underwater, here is some footage from animal planet.

I bet they have their own folklore about us.

Your daily fish #8

Special edition: Noble giants

Ocean sunfish - Mola mola

Of course I wouldn't leave out the worldwide famous Mola mola!

They can measure up to 330 cm.

These gentle giants tend to be shy and are often seen swimming upright or on their sides close to the surface.

They live in tropical zones of all seas.

They eat fish, mollusks, zooplankton, jellyfish, crustaceans and brittle stars.

They breathe through the holes that you can see near their fins and sometimes sea lions and other creatures take bites out of them but they don't seem to mind and keep swimming (very slowly).

They look pretty chill to me, and if I were a sea lion I'd take a bite too, they look like chewy sea cookies.

This spectacular squid is the robust clubhook squid, Onykia robusta, one of the largest species of squid in the ocean. This juvenile measured about 60 centimeters (two feet) long, but adults can grow to over three meters (almost 10 feet). 🦑💫⁠ ⁠ Large body size has many benefits, including protection from predators. But growing big is a challenge, particularly for squid. By virtue of their molluscan heritage, squids possess a set of traits—including high energy demand, energetically costly locomotion, and low blood-oxygen-carrying capacity—that presumably restrict most species to smaller adult body sizes. But clearly, there are exceptions.⁠ ⁠ The deep sea remains one of Earth’s least explored habitats, and extraordinary animals like the robust clubhook squid remind us how much there is still to discover. Questions about how and why some deep-sea species grow to such impressive sizes continue to inspire research, fueling new discoveries about life in the ocean’s depths.⁠

Your daily fish #78

Mahi mahi - Coryphaena hippurus

They are FAST! Fast in every aspect of their lives.

In their first year of life they grow up to one meter and usually weight around 14 kg and live up to 5 years.

Just like tuna, they need to move constantly to pass water through their gills to breathe, this also means they are highly migratory and you can find them almost everywhere.

They are visual predators, they depent on daylight to see their prey, crabs, squids and small fish.

Their foreheads are bony, that's bone!

Green fish! I LOVE their colors 💚💛

I found this blog cause someone added a post from it to the pillowfort fish community and I thought it looked super cool!!

Anywho have yall done the northern cave fish (aka amblyopsis spelaea)? Theyre super cool examples of animals adapting to living in cave ecosystems which is why theyre pale pink, a tad see-through, and have no eyes!

Your daily fish #73

Northern cavefish - amblyopsis spelaea

Requested by @groovy-rat-man

(Ty! It was about time for a translucent, blind, cave fish!)

Blind and translucent fish! They have no eyes but they can still detect light and swim away from it.

They live in underground caves filled with water!

Their metabolism is slow and can survive up to 2 years without food, they reproductive rate is also slow and they brood their eggs for 4-5 months in their gill cavity.

They navigate their surroundings using a combination of touch, smell and water vibrations.

When they die... do they run away from the light at the end of the tunnel? Does that make them immortal???

Anyways, TRANSLUCENT FISH!!!

Their shape reminds me of the olm, they share similar environments!

Babygirl I know fandom history that you wouldn’t even care about

[mikkeneko]

i know fandom history that even I don’t care about

[antlershade]

well, i know about lump fish

[cyber-seagull404]

Good to see we’re all on the same page

Your daily fish #36

Red fin shark - Epalzeorhynchos frenatum

A very common tank fish, I see them in almost every fishtank!

They like swimming close to the bottom and they feed on leftovers and growing algae so that’s why they are a good addition to almost any fish tank.

Despite their name, they are not sharks and they are peaceful (unless stressed, in mating season or fighting for dominance or territory).

Have you seen them? :0

I've ignored my fish duties long enough, I'll be coming back gradually🐟🫡

[1-fish-a-day]

Your daily fish #18

Remora - Remora remora

They have these suction disks that they use to latch onto other fish, they are often seen latched onto sharks, manta rays, turtles and other big fish

They are often caught as a bycatch along with whatever creature they were stuck to. I’d take it as bonus fishes.

There is this type of fishing that is called remora fishing in which you tie a remora with a fishing line and throw them in the water and you fish whatever it is that they latch onto.

I think it's hilarious, catching fish with a sticky fish.

A fish fishing fish!

As an extra super duper bonus those creatures may have more remora attached so you get more remoras.

I wonder if they latch onto eachother, that would be the cherry on top.

Your daily fish #23

Pink kissing gourami - helostoma temminckii

What a pair of cuties!

They are, in fact, fighting.

One of the most cruel, absolutely ferocious, dangerous, vicious, extremely violent, life-threatening battles. (not really)

A freshwater fish originated from Asia, they like dense vegetation and slow moving water. When the oxygen is low they get to the surface to get some fresh air.

These fish tend to be territorial and what you see here is a fight for dominance.

You can often see them in pairs consisting of a male and a female in aquariums, since they are territorial and will get into fights and harm each other and other fish.

Archer doesn’t just sit, he presides over the tank like a benevolent dictator.

“Hmmm….yes. Release the lions.”

In our latest episode of deep-sea animals that can dance better than you worm we give you a ribbon worm with smooth moves. 💃🏻⁠

Nemerteans are neither worms nor fish, although they look a bit like both. They are unique enough to belong in their own phylum. Most nemerteans burrow in sediments or between crevices in rocks, shells, and other seafloor habitats, but some, like this one, live in the open ocean, never touching the seafloor. Nemerteans range in length from a few millimeters to 30 meters when stretched (nearly 100 feet); most species measure about 20 centimeters (about eight inches) or less.⁠ ⁠

This ribbon worm (Phallonemertes sp.) was observed at 1,630 meters (5,348 feet).

Your daily fish #40

Northern red snapper - Lutjanus campechanus

Or as I like to call it: the guachinango, it's also called that, I didn't make it up, I love that word.

It is a common commercial fish, you may have seen it it the fish section at the supermarket. There are many laws that protect this fish from overfishing and other activities that may affect its population numbers.

It is thought that their red color comes from the shrimp they eat.

I just like the name, that’s all :>

[1-fish-a-day]

Your daily fish #67

Lake wanam rainbowfish - Glossolepis wanamensis

They are critically endangered in their natal lake. Lake wanum in New Guinea.

They display greenish tones with rainbow like scales!

The males are more colorful than the females, and the females tend to be shorter and have shorter "foreheads". The males also have longer anal fins.

I wanted a colorful fish for today!

Also, I took one of the pictures! ^^

Can you tell which one? 👀
