Hi @dondon1, the weirdest fish I have ever seen has got to be either the blobfish which I think won the world’s ugliest animal competition last year (http://tinyurl.com/pnvf3p2) or the anglerfish (http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/fish/anglerfish/). They are both deep sea fish and live under hundreds of metres of water. The angler fish catches its food by having a ‘fishing rod’ on its head which lights up. Because the angler fish lives so deep in the ocean, there is no light and when fish see the light of the anglerfish’s rod then they come closer to inspect it. This is when the anglerfish attacks it’s prey.
