The order Pleuronectiformes is full of #FreakyFish. The order consists of Flatfishes, fishes that lay on benthic substrate on one of their lateral sides. The larvae actually have one eye on each side and as they become adults, one eye will migrate to one side!

Is this #FreakyFish just walking? It’s actually tasting too! This armored sea robin (Peristediidae) uses its modified pelvic fins for to feel and taste for prey in the substrate. The barbels on these fishes also have tastebuds for tasting it’s environment!

Blue-spotted Mudskipper is the #FreakyFish of the day! Boleophthalmus boddarti are among a family of bizarre fishes that are regularly found on mudflats… out of water. The males can be seen raising their dorsal fins in territory dispute skirmishes and to attract mates!

The Flashlight Fish (Anomalops katoptron) is today’s #FreakyFish. Those glowing spots are sub-ocular organs that house symbiotic bacteria to produce bioluminescent light! These luminous organs can be covered with shutter-like flaps controlled by the fish.

Eptatretus cirrhatus is today’s #FreakyFish. The Broadgilled Hagfish is a jawless fish that is well known for producing copious amounts of self defensive slime. The slime clogs the gills of predators trying to swallow the hagfish. 📷 Zintzen et al., 2011 📷Matthew Ruglys

The Candiru is today’s #FreakyFish! Vandellia cirrhosa is a parasitic trichomycterid catfish that attaches itself to major gill blood vessels to feed on blood from the poor host 🩸 It’s also been rumored that these fishes can swim up a human urethra 😳 📷 Ivan Sazima

The #FreakyFish for today has a specific food craving… eyeballs 👀. Dimidiochromis compressiceps, the Malawi Eyebiter is a piscivore that can also develops an appetite for eyes from other fishes. A great example of adaptive radiation of Cichlid fishes!

Todays #Freakyfish since we are 16 days from Halloween is the Sarcastic Fringehead (Neoclinus blanchardi). This fish isn’t smiling, but rather using this jaw-dropping 😉 display against other males to defend its territory. 📷Adriane Honerbrink 📷Watcharapong Hongjamrassilp

17 days from Halloween so here’s another #FreakyFish. Idiacanthus (Black Dragonfish) and other dragonfishes have bioluminescent chin barbles! These barbles are based on the urohyal bone and are hypothesized for luring prey and communication.

Here’s another #FreakyFish since we are 18 days away from #Halloween2022. In the darkness of the deep, Macropinna microstoma (barreleye) sits and waits… rotating its tubular eyes 90 degrees upwards looking through its transparent head. Don’t look down… 📷 MBARI 2004

We are 19 days away from #Halloween2022 so let’s showcase some #FreakyFish. I’ll start today with Argyropelecus aculeatus. Notice all the photophores on their ventral surface? Hatchetfishes can use bioluminescence to disguise their silhouette from predators looking above!
