You say: 'fish' and you think of a certain shape and fins, and scales… Can you imagine something really ugly, as if roughly cut out of a sponge, walking over the sea floor using fins (which are more limbs than fins) and no scales at all? And that is exactly how the Frogfish looks like – the Queen of all the ugly fish.
Smile! I am pretty sure if there was a world contest for a most weird, ugly, awkward and strangely coloured fish – the Psychedelic Frogfish would definitely be an ultimate and unsurpassed winner!
How and why Puffers puff up, why still humans eat them (despite they are deadly poisonous); how it happens that Yellow Boxfish is actually blue; why both Puffers and Boxfish are so much loved by marine aquarists and their aquarium keeping as well. Have fun and learn in process! There is plenty of good quality colourful illustrations inside.
