and something more of a funfact; the german name for sunfish is moonfish (Mondfisch) and that confused me for so long

2. Man-of-war has no gender.
3. Many bony fish have more than just one set of nostrils.

2. The mantis shrimp has 16 color receptive cones in it's eyes...the rainbow a human sees stems from a combination of three colors....imagine the rainbow that a mantis shrimp sees 3. Their limbs move so quickly when attacking, the water around them boils, in a process known as supercavitation, When the cavitation bubbles collapse, it produces an underwater shock-wave that can kill the prey even if the mantis shrimp misses it's target.
~~not sure if our facts can be about just one creature, but the mantis shrimp is incredibly interesting, so my facts are all about it.

2. Swellsharks sometimes bends its body into a crescent, grabs its tail in its mouth, and turns itself into a big, inflated ring. The result is something that’s just . . . hard to eat.
3. This is the Bunny Sea Slug. The structure on the sea bunny's behind that looks like a little "flower" are its gills.

What if some stayed in the ocean, and continued to evolve into mermaids?...
2.PINK SEE THROUGH FANTASIA: Its mouth, anus, and intestines are all visible from outside.Just like other bioluminescent creatures, this species can emit light. In fact, when in danger, it uses that light to alarm potential predators. 3.SEA ANGELS: so cute right? well..they catch their prey by shooting tentacles out of their face grabbing and its prey. then they rip the prey out of its shell, swallowing it all.
