Fish

One common organism responsible for fish kills in coastal waters is red tide. Red tide refers to a harmful algal bloom caused by the rapid growth of certain species of algae that produce powerful toxins harmful to marine life. These toxins can lead to mass fish die-offs when ingested by fish or other marine animals.

The largest fish with very sharp teeth is the great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias). These apex predators have rows of serrated, razor-sharp teeth that they use to tear their prey apart. Great white sharks can grow up to 20 feet in length and weigh over 2 tons.

Red snapper fish can reach lengths of up to 35 inches and weights of around 20 pounds, although larger individuals have been recorded.

Grenadier fish are deep-sea scavengers that primarily feed on small fish, crustaceans, and other bottom-dwelling creatures. They are opportunistic feeders and may also consume detritus and carrion found on the ocean floor.

In the SpongeBob SquarePants episode, "Whirly Brains," the fish who temporarily replaces Mrs. Puff as the boating school teacher is a live-action human finger.

Depending on size and species, Catfish can be microscopic and weigh less than a gramm or they can be pretty big. The biggest on record was a Mekong Giant Catfish (Pangasianodon gigas) weighing in at around 646 lbs.

Yes, lemon fish, also known as cobia, have smooth skin with very small, barely noticeable scales. They are often mistaken as scaleless due to the fine texture of their skin.

Jaws are believed to have evolved from the first pair of gill arches in early fish species. Over time, these arches transformed into the complex structures we see in modern vertebrates, allowing for more efficient feeding and predation. This adaptation played a key role in the evolutionary success of jawed vertebrates.

Alaska is known for its salmon fishing industry, particularly for wild-caught salmon like sockeye, coho, and king (chinook) salmon. The state's rivers and streams are abundant with salmon during their annual spawning runs.

I guess anything is possible but Tuna do live in the Ocean and are very very large, fast swimming fish who hunt in schools/shoals. I think you would need a very large aquarium to house a Tuna and a large wallet full of money to feed it and keep it alive.

Most fish lay eggs that are externally fertilized. This means that the female fish releases her eggs into the water, where they are fertilized by the male fish's sperm. The fertilized eggs then develop outside the female's body until they hatch.

Whales are mammals ; see relevant link for additional information .

Whales have pelvic bones because millions of years ago, they were land animals, but as they evolved, they no longer needed their pelvis because over time they lost their need for legs. So now their pelvis and legs are vestigial, meaning they no longer serve their original purpose. They just kept the trait. As for fish, they never had legs, so no need for a pelvis.

Wild salmon is typically available from late spring to early fall, with the peak season being in the summer months. The specific availability can vary depending on the species and location of the catch. Wild salmon can be found fresh or frozen, depending on the time of year and region.

Fish originated from the waters of Earth, so they are found in various countries all over the world. Fish can be found in rivers, lakes, oceans, and other bodies of water, so they do not originate from a specific country.

The hagfish is often considered the dirtiest fish in the sea due to its scavenging behavior, slimy secretion, and ability to produce copious amounts of mucus when threatened.

Yes, dogs can eat cooked fish sticks or portions in moderation. However, it's important to ensure that the fish is thoroughly cooked and free from any seasoning or ingredients that could be harmful to dogs, such as garlic or onion. Additionally, feeding fish as an occasional treat is recommended.

To operate as a wholesale fish dealer, you would typically need a Wholesale Fish Dealer License issued by the relevant regulatory authority in your jurisdiction. The specific requirements and application process can vary depending on where you are located. It's advisable to contact your local department of agriculture or fisheries to obtain the necessary information and application forms.

The flatfish, such as flounders, halibuts, and soles, have both their eyes on the same side of their head. This adaptation allows them to lie flat on the ocean floor and easily camouflage themselves against predators.

The fish that shares its name with a sports boot is the "Barracuda".

When my betta gets long fibers or hair stuck in his mouth, I put him in a glass bread baking dish with 2" water & net him. I take tweezers and very very slowly pull it out - if it wasn't rectified on its own in 2 days. I put half dose of stress guard in tank and wait 6-8 hours to feed him. They have all survived this. If it stays in the gut & mouth you risk infection. I have a ceiling fan that blows things in tank so I try to keep majority of it covered with air holes.

You can tell the age of a fish from the number of growth rings on each of its scales. Each pair of rings represents a year. The dark narrow rings represents winter; the wider, lighter rings represents summer.

Yes they are a variety of brine shrimp that were marketed by a very smart ("Spin Doctor" type entrepreneur who got very rich from the spin).

Discus fish primarily eat a diet of live or frozen foods like bloodworms, brine shrimp, and blackworms. They may also eat high-quality flake or pellet food specifically designed for discus fish. It's important to provide them with a varied diet to ensure they receive all the necessary nutrients.
