If it is a 'cannibal fish', it eats its own kind. I doubt it. I also doubt it bites humans (I would sure like biting dolphins taking revenge on japanese 'fishers', slaughtering them every year, in that special bay of theirs).

Aapart from that this one's from the depths, and it surely was sick by the low water density and pressure.

And it was probably underwhelmed by the enlightenment of the land-living species:

Very little is known about the lancet fish but they are said to grow up to 6.6ft in length and are found in all oceans except polar seas.

Not much chance of it crossing my path on the local beach then

Thankfully I'm not one that likes to swim in the sea that much

"see the sky" was maybe on his bucket list.

That thing couldn't eat a large tuna

Jimbuna · 05-20-14, 07:13 AM

It'd make short work of your little sprat though

Betonov · 05-20-14, 07:15 AM

Whats a sprat

Jimbuna · 05-20-14, 07:57 AM

A tiddler, a tiny fish or specimen

Betonov · 05-20-14, 08:33 AM

I don't have any tiny fish.

I have one large Eel though

Boys, boys, boys - stop the innuendoes about what's in your codpiece.

Look at the head on it. I bet he can ram his way into any dark crevice he wants to.

Good and long, although not as girthy as what she *cough...ahem* oceanographers are looking for, but hey, beggers can't be choosers, right?

He can eat it, just for the halibut.
