wolf eel? Perchance?

Your daily fish #74

Wolf eel - Anarrhichthys ocellatus

Requested by @eelycool

(Ty! This is an eel-intended post! ^^)

Despite their name, they are not eels!

They are fish! With long slender bodies and strong jaws that let them break apart seashells and crabs.

The juveniles orange and the adults are grey.

Their bodies are covered in a thick mucus and they have no scales!

The longest one ever recorded was 2.4 meters long.

Don't let their appearance fool you, they are harmless to humans!

...unless you put your hand in their mouth ...an accident may happen.

Why... um...

Why do they kinda look like my grandma...? 💀

They do look scary and somewhat angry but they are chill!

Bonus! Teeth!

Have you ever seen an Atlantic wolffish (Anarhichas lupus)? Growing up to 6 ft (2 m) long and weighing up to 50 lbs (22.6 kg), this predator can be found lurking among rocky caves on the ocean floor. It uses its massive molars to crush the shells of bottom-dwellers including scallops and crabs. Because its teeth wear down quickly from constant grinding, they are replaced annually—and the wolffish is forced to fast for months until its new teeth come in.

Mermay 2026: Chibi Teddiami

MerChibi Teddiami swims under the sea.

The Lycan Teddiami is a proud shapeshifter of her lost bloodline. There are a few cases where Chibi has gotten out of her comfort zone and transformed into other species outside from her home, that is suggested by Tomo, to help her adapt to her surroundings. As a Merfolk, MerChibi is capable of hunting her enemies while she is able to venture through the tough ocean depths. MerChibi is able to communicate with the underwater wildlife. It is said that the merform has affected a couple of her other forms, perhaps we shall see what the werewolf will look like in the ocean.

To recap, I had made MerChibi Teddiami back in 2022 as she was originally an Orca Merfolk. I had originally wanted to make a merfolk variant for her Koopa form (which I still am gonna do later this month), but I decided to get out of my comfort zone and make this. I rarely see Killer Whale/ Orca merfolk so it makes sense for her to be one. Also Killer Whales are known to be Wolves of the Sea. But instead, after I had made MerArden, Chibi will be a Wolf Fish (along with any of my were/wolf characters). And yes, Chibi can be shirtless as she is basically a beast (anthromorphic teddy bear with werewolf genes); but not that much except as a werewolf.
