Now there’s another fish I didn’t know existed. Apparently nobody did…
I admit I’m not a fish connoisseur, there are many species of fish I didn’t know existed and I have just added a new one to the list. This one is a beauty though, if you know what it is, please a comment, I’d appreciate it!

I know what you mean. The comments section would have looked way-cool without dumbasses who don’t know how to spell people.

It’s an Oarfish. Very Rare, some people in Thailand have claimed this fish to be the legendary “Naga”. A mythical serpent being.

Genobetta you are correct, it is an Oarfish and are very rare because thy live deep in the the ocean where they prey on shrimp etc. They only surface when dying. These are the fish that were mistaken as sea monsters by the early sailors because of their size.
