Ctenophores have got to be one of the most under rated denizens of the Jersey Shore. Rainbows by day, glow sticks by night. Why is everyone not hyping the ctenophore?!

the fact that greenland sharks don’t reach sexual maturity until they’re about 150 years old is so relatable. i too take a century and a half until i gain the confidence and maturity to fuck

Flashlight Fish Appreciation Post
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Anomalopidae (lanterneye fishes or flashlight fishes) are a family of fish distinguished by bioluminescent organs located underneath their eyes, for which they are named.
These light organs contain luminous bacteria and can be "shut off" by the fish using either a dark lid or by being drawn into a pouch. They are used to communicate, attract prey, and evade predators.
These rarely seen fish are nocturnal and found in the Indo-Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea.
