The wonderful Glass Octopus. Living at depths of around 3000 ft and only being about a foot long, these strange little creatures are rarely seen by scientists.

Enough depressurized blobfish. I'm here to spread living blobfish propaganda.
Look at them. Gorgeous. Wonderful. Living comfortably at depths to over 1,200 meters in the ocean. Be nice to them.

Today is Wet Beast Wednesday!
Today’s wet beast is: Pipefish
Olive’s wet beast fact: You’re probably thinking that these worm-on-a-string lookin ass creatures look like straightened seahorses. That’s bc they are part of the Syngnathidae family with Seahorses and Sea Dragons. Funky!
Stay tuned for more Wet Beast Wednesdays!

The stoplight loosejaw: it possibly uses its red photophore as 'night vision'; most deep sea organisms cant see red light.
It has lost the floor of its mouth so the jaws can shoot out without water resistance slowing them down.
