The sunfish with the Scuba Diver for scale and its tiny babies.

The school curriculum tells us about this fish as the most prolific. It spawns up to 300 million eggs at a time!
And here is what they told us about it at the Summer School of the Biology Department of Moscow State University:
For a long time it was believed that this colossus, despite its size, is not able to resist the force of currents, which immediately places it in the category of Plankton. Yes, yes, along with microalgae, tiny crustaceans and jellyfish!
However, not everything is so clear!
Further observations showed that in shallow water the sunfish is able to purposefully swim at a speed of just over 3 km/h. But in the open sea it completely trusts fate...

Peek-a-boo! Have you ever seen the granulate shellback crab (Hypoconcha arcuata)? Growing about 0.6 in (1.4 cm) long, this unusual-looking crustacean inhabits coastlines along parts of the western Atlantic, with a range that includes parts of the United States, Mexico, and Brazil. Unlike hermit crabsโwhich hide inside their chosen shellsโthis critter uses its posterior legs to secure shells onto its back, often shouldering pieces larger than its own body, as a defense against foes.
