Aphotic zone
space and sunlight
Fish are a part of the marine biome. There are two forms of marine biomes: fresh water biomes and salt water biomes.
Since the aphotic zone does not receive sunlight it relys on the photic zone for the sunlight which in terms it does penetrate.
Freshwater Biomes, Estuary Biomes, and Marine Biomes
Marine biomes are located in the Earth's oceans and seas, which cover about 70% of the planet's surface. They can be found in various latitudes, from polar regions to tropical waters, and at different depths, ranging from shallow coastal areas to deep ocean trenches. Marine biomes support a wide range of ecosystems and diverse marine life.
Marine biomes are found in saltwater environments like oceans and seas, while freshwater biomes occur in bodies of water with low salt concentration like rivers, lakes, and ponds. Marine biomes have a higher salt content, different climate patterns, and unique biodiversity compared to freshwater biomes.

Aquatic biomes are large geographical regions characterized by their proximity to water. They include marine (saltwater) and freshwater environments such as oceans, lakes, rivers, and wetlands. These biomes support a wide variety of organisms adapted to living in water, ranging from tiny plankton to large marine mammals.
Coral reefs are one of the most productive aquatic biomes due to the diversity of species they support and the high rates of photosynthesis by coral and algae. These biomes play a crucial role in supporting marine life and ecosystems.
