[1-fish-a-day]

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!

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!

the bartender at this bar I came to last month remembered me and I’m so touched! I also tip really good and I think that’s why the Spanish coffee I’m drinking right now is strong as fuuuuckk 👌👌

The eerie cave fish Phreatichthys andruzzii, a species endemic to Somalia and monotypic of its genus- its closest relatives are carps and true minnows. It’s been estimated that this species has been evolving independently in their flooded cave environment for the last two million years. They’ve lost their eyes over time simply because they don’t need them to get around in the environment they’ve become expertly adapted to, and they’re quite happy without them.
