The ocean holds many wonders in the world, with infinite species of fish, some yet to be seen or classified. I love fish myself (not to eat mind you), and I have been fascinated by all the strange, unworldly marine life deep in the trenches of the ocean.

Here you can discuss and post pictures of some of the most creepy and disturbing fish that lie at the bottom of the ocean.

The blob fish for example.



Cute, ain't he?  

 

My favorite is the barreleye fish. It has a see-through noggin.

 

nice fishes...


but how do they taste?

 

I remember a computer game from back in the day called Amazon Trail that when you ate a barracuda or a shark, you'd get food poisoning.

So what do you think a Angler Fish would do to you?

 

that blob fish reminds me of Kirby from the Kirby video games.

 

Really? I thought he looked like Mr. Saturn from Earthbound.

 

holy crap! it is Mr.Saturn!

...weird... got a case of dejavue right now...

more pics of deep sea creatures, please.

 

Sure thing.

 

... oh god, that's cute.

 

I highly recommend reading this site: The Deep

The "blobfish" only looks like that since it can't really support it's weight out of water. It naturally looks a lot more mundane:

 

I give you...

THE GOBLIN SHARK.



Aside from the fact it has an extending jaw which brings the Alien to mind (of course), my initial first reaction was, "Holy crap, it's Zigra!"

 

Those fishes look werid. They need a stiff drink to feel better.

 

why does it look like a human head  ?

 

Amazing fish!

 

My favorite, The Viperfish:

 

Gulper Eel in the house!

 

i love sharks

 

Is this an actual fish? I'm having trouble imagining something more terrifying.

EDIT: My god, it IS real. Nightmares.
