Although it looks an awful lot like a road, it is not.

There are many beautiful and unusual creatures that inhabit the depths of the sea. This compilation of fish, crabs and other amazing marine species is simply incredible.
Black Dragon Fish

This huge fish was found dead on the Yasawas Islands, Fiji. It seems that it died after trying to swallow a puffer fish… Not the best dinner, huh?

The pictures of a Newfoundland Crab boat on the Grand Banks of Newfoundland are just impressive.
These are the richest fishing grounds in the world with plenty of fish, shellfish species and many others. It is also noted for its proximity to the wreck of the Titanic. But as we can see, sometimes the waters are rough over there and it is not that easy to fish.
Hats off to brave fishermen for their everyday hard work!

We once had a video with a fish with a human face, which is freaky enough.
And these are fishes which have human-like expressions on their faces. For the most part, they are funny but some of them are really disturbing…

These strange sea species were found in Greenland waters. All the fish in the pictures look scary, and I will never go swimming in that region :)

Fish can help you to treat serious skin diseases. A special thermal spa in Turkey allows patients from all over the world swimming in the pool and letting the fish eat all infected parts of their skin. Fish “doctors” can help people to fight chronic, intractable diseases. Some people might find this treatment a bizarre method, but it’s very helpful!

Here’s an interesting “investigation” conducted by Telegraph to see the fish and their celebrity equivalents.
Martin Locke with his carp that weighed 94 pounds (or 42.6kg or 6 stone 10... or one Kylie Minogue)

Strong seasonal drought prevails in the vast Amazon rainforest. Just a horrible view.
For those with a weak stomach, don’t watch these pics while eating.

Meet one of the most poisonous and also ugliest sea creatures - stonefish.
This creature of only 15-20 centimeters long with an ugly big head, small eyes and large mouth lives in the coastal regions of Indo-Pacific oceans.
They are extremely dangerous. There are cases when a person dies within a few hours or even minutes after the injection of poisonous spines.
People who are lucky enough to survive a stonefish sting often remain disabled.

Fish jumps out of the water and ends directly in heron’s mouth. I guess luck was not part of the program… ))
Shitty day for one of them, great day for the other one… that’s life!

That is one huge fish!
A medical student has caught a big fish, a warsaw grouper weighing 359.1 pounds. This giant fish is apparently 12 ounces above the previous Louisiana state record.
–
Dolphin, sharks, whales and even birds are competing underwater for fish. It’s amazing.
Take a look at the pics, they are worth it.
–
Look at what those fishermen caught? A real monster.
As impressive by its size as by its aspect. I don’t know what species it is, but there is a lot to eat…
Other fish on the boat look so ridiculously small in comparison.

Cymothoa exigua or the Tongue eating louse is a parasitic crustacean. It tends to be 3 to 4 cm long. This parasite attaches itself at the base of the spotted rose snapper's tongue, entering the fish's mouth through its gills. It then proceeds to extract blood through the claws on its front three pairs of legs. As the parasite grows, less and less blood reaches the tongue, and eventually the organ atrophies from lack of blood. The parasite then replaces the fish's tongue by attaching its own body to the muscles of the tongue stub. The fish is able to use the parasite just like a normal tongue. It appears that the parasite does not cause any other damage to the host fish.
This is the only known case of a parasite functionally replacing a host organ.

After seeing these photos I have only one question. Why?
The situations can be different though. A man bought a dishwasher, but didn’t have enough money for a stove, for example 
And to prepare fish like this is quite simple - take a salmon, some vegetables and sauce.
Wrap all ingredients in a foil and put it in the dishwasher.
Then you turn on the machine and your fish is steamed.
For some reason I think that it would taste horrible, but maybe I'm wrong.

What a huge fish! It is the thought that crosses your mind while you are looking at the pictures. But this it is not for its size that this fish is famous...

This awesome ‘living’ poster was made in Frankfurt, Germany only for five days.
And it did great his job, it attracted a lot of people.
But don’t worry, no fish suffered during this ‘ad campaign’ ;) They where provided with oxygen and food and during noontime the water was cooled down with ice from the restaurant.
But after the promotion, I guess they were all eaten as they destined to be ;))
–
It is quite an ordinary fish at first sight, called arowana, but this fish has an interesting way of breeding.
–
Do you remember this picture from yesterday’s picdump?
Here is a right candidate for horror movies. I hope that it has no problems with its teeth in the long term ;)

Amazingly beautiful pictures of the underwater world's nature. Great!

Great aquarium designs. Normally, it shouldn’t be that expensive to have fish as a pet, but looking at these aquariums it makes me doubt that.
But they are really beautiful and stylish.
