Seriously looks like some a-hole damned to the existence in the deep seas as a fugly creature.

Re: Blob Fish
The all-knowing Wikipedia says they live between 2,000 and 3,900 feet deep. Suffice to say my gas mixes don't let me go that deep...

Blob Fish
It does. They don't have a swim bladder. Their doughy flesh is just slightly more positive than the water around them, letting them drift without requiring a swim bladder for buoyancy.GearHead wrote:The depth might explain their appearance.
Entire that or the pressure has crushed their features to... well... a blob.
