Blobfish are relatively inactive and have a low metabolism due to their deep-sea habitat, so they do not require much energy to survive. They conserve energy by remaining motionless and feeding on whatever drifts by. Their minimal activity level allows them to survive on a diet of small prey items that provide just enough energy to sustain them.
Factors that affect how much energy you use include the type of appliances and electronics you use in your home, as well as your energy consumption habits such as how often you use these devices and for how long. Additionally, weather conditions like extremes of temperature can impact how much energy you use for heating or cooling.
Incandescent light bulbs are not energy efficient, as much of the energy they use is converted into heat rather than light. Only about 10% of the energy they consume is actually turned into light.
The number that tells you how much electrical energy a machine will use in one year of average use is called the annual energy consumption in kilowatt-hours (kWh). It is a measure of the total energy the machine consumes over the course of a year if used normally.
New energy star dishwashers use about 340kw a yr, along with 5.8 gallons of water per use.

A Blobfish weighs about 20 pounds.
I dont know how mach does a blobfish weight does anyone know?
Yes, blobfish do have muscles, but they are not well-developed like those of more active fish. Blobfish are adapted to live in deep-sea environments where the pressure is extremely high, which influences their gelatinous, almost muscle-less structure. This unique composition allows them to maintain buoyancy in their deep-sea habitat without expending much energy.
they don't get any because they are at the bottom of the ocean
The correct plural form is "blobfish," as it remains unchanged in the plural. However, some people might use "blobfishes" informally. In scientific contexts, "blobfish" is typically used to refer to the species in both singular and plural forms.
A blobfish uses its fins to paddle and its tail to steer/change direction. However... Because the blobfish is a sea-bed fish which lives along the bottom of the sea beds where the pressure is so high, it is impossible for the gas bladder, found in most fish, to achieve perfect buoyancy. Therefore the blobfish evolved gelatine-like flesh which helps them to float in the extremely high pressures without using all of their energy. A disadvantage of this is that the blobfish has relatively little muscles to help the fins and tails work properly. Therefore when blobfish hunt for food, they merely swallow edible things that simply float in front of it, rather than swimming around hunting food like most fish. Blobfish are on the verge of extinction because of deep-sea trawler fishing.
The blobfish belongs to the Animalia kingdom.
A blobfish typically weighs around 6 to 10 kilograms (13 to 22 pounds) on average. However, the weight of a blobfish can vary depending on factors such as age, size, and environmental conditions. It is important to note that these weights are approximate and can fluctuate.
they use their fins to steer while swimming and to change direction
They use way to much energy, but what would we do with out google. :)
Blobfish is edible, but has a poison sake that can kill you if not properly removed.
