Free swimming fish live in the nekton area. In the Pacific Ocean whales, sharks, squid, turtles, octopus, rays, and adult fish are some animals that live in the nekton area in the Pacific Ocean. There are many more animals but these are the most basic ones that would be found easily and well known thoughout the world. I hope I answered your question.
