One of my favorite episodes of Planet Earth is the Deep Sea one. They show such wonderful life down there. I all ways tune in for such shows just because it fascinates me so!

The Deep Ocean has the most interesting adaptations for living that far under the water!

There is another thread already covering this fish, though I haven't looked through it to see if it contains the video you posted, but figured it might be of interest to you.

I read somewhere that these fish roll their eyes into the back of their head so they can see through their own skin for a greater viewing angle.
Very strange indeed. I hope they find one that has the entire body invisible because that would be awesome.

hey johnjohn

as we just both found out, there is already a thread on this fish, so your thread will be closed... let's continue the discussion in the earlier thread...so sorry
