At the time of writing, I have two mutuals here and I am about to inflict knowledge about the sarcastic fringehead upon you both

This is the sarcastic fringehead! A beautiful little fish which 99% of the time can be found hiding in a crevice opening and closing it’s mouth as depicted below:

These fish are highly territorial (feel free to interpret this as extremely angry) and do not take kindly to similar sized animals on their territory, especially other sarcastic fringeheads. They do, however, have a trick up their fins to scare off a potential predator

That trick being S C R E A M

This usually does the trick, and if all else fails a good old-fashioned brawl will commence. Nevertheless, I am glad that evolution produced a fish with a massive neon green mouth as it’s primary defence mechanism

♪ It's time for Fish Fact Friday ♪

The blobfish is a deep-sea fish unfortunately nicknamed for its appearance after being dragged to the surface - the rapid depressurisation causes extensive tissue damage, resulting in the fish losing its shape and turning into a gel-like blob :(

The gelatinous body of these fish are slightly less dense than water, which allows them to maintain buoyancy in deep waters without a swim bladder!

Blobfish can live for up to 130 years, and it is believed that females can lay up to 100,000 eggs at a time, though their growth and reproduction rate is slow.

The blobfish was also voted the world's ugliest animal in 2013 and made the mascot of the Ugly Animal Preservation Society! They became quite well-known and popular as a result of this title, which ultimately helped to draw attention to the conservation of 'unattractive' animals!

🎶 The Laughing Bird: Meet the Kookaburra! 🐦

Known for their iconic laugh-like call, kookaburras are one of Australia’s most beloved birds. Whether perched high in trees or calling out at dawn, these feathered friends are full of character! 🌿

📌 Kookaburra Fun Facts: ✅ Loud Laughs: Their calls are used to establish territory and communicate with their family. ✅ Meat-Eaters: Unlike most birds, kookaburras are carnivores, feeding on insects, small reptiles, and even fish. 🐍 ✅ Family Birds: Kookaburras often live in family groups, with older siblings helping raise younger chicks.

🌟 What’s your favorite Australian animal? Drop a 🐦 if the kookaburra makes your list!

Waterchange day again. It's really easy now, now that they are no longer in the cellar. I can just throw the hose out the window and water the garden, lol.
