Also from the family called the Fat Heads. Their family name come from the Greeks  It is considered an endangered species because the fishing companies that have been over fishing the oceans. Are trying to catch shrimp and crabs but these ugly guys tend to get caught with them in the nets in the process.

Interesting Facts
-The Blog Fish is considered the ugliest animal on the planet, due to the lack of people liking the fish,  people are not caring as much if this animal goes extinct.

-If you have ever watched Pokemon this creature reminds me of a Ditto, the little pink guys who transform into basically anything they want like a mirror image.

- They have no bones or teeth. They are basically a pile of fat that floats around the ocean.

- No Blob Fish has ever been caught alive so trying make them a pet will probably never happen.

What this very rare and unusually creature is called the Atretochoan eiselti, also known as the "Penis Snake". This species is the largest of the few known tetra pods, and one of two caecilians, to lack lungs. Its eye sight is very bad so it relays on its sense of smell to navigate to places,

                                                                                   -Texas has a $100 limit on who ever catches these fish and turns them in since their is a highly unusual report of pet owners of Pacu releasing these creatures into nearby lakes.
