fun fact! if you were to arrange every fish on earth in a straight line, nose to tail, they probably wouldn't enjoy it very much

Ocean Sunfish or Common Mola (Mola mola), family Molidae, order Tetraodontiformes, found in temperate and tropical oceans around the world
The largest bony fish in the world, growing up to 3.3 m (10 ft 10 in) in height, up to 1.8 m (5 ft 11 in) in length, and weighing up to 2,300 kg (5,100 lb) ... 1,000 kg (545 to 2,205 lb) as a mas weight is more common.
They feed on a wide variety of invertebrates and small fish (not just jellyfish, as was once thought).

the Great Mola Mola is a divine traveller, its perfect rubbery flesh grants it voyage from the ocean's surface to the vast depths of the mesopelagic. its body is the perfect vessel, it requires no swim bladder as it slips off into the abyss. words cannot adequately describe my mortal adoration for the Great Ocean Sunfish, may my humble attempt in ink and paper strive to capture even a sliver of its majesty.
from the depths of the mesopelagic to the glory of the sun! all hail the ocean sunfish 🙏🙏🙏

💙 ¡Hola mola! 👋
We recently welcomed a new ocean sunfish (Mola mola) to our Open Sea Exhibit. Just like the fintastic travelers that visit Monterey Bay, our ocean sunfish is making a splash as a delightful, albeit temporary, guest at the Aquarium!
When a sunfish reaches a weight of approximately 500 pounds (230 kg) or exhibits behavioral changes signaling their readiness to go, we release them back into the wild, equipped with tags. In our collaborative scientific community, where research involves public participation, these tags play a crucial role. They enable us to track their growth if encountered by anyone—including you—in the future.
The duration of a sunfish’s visit to the Aquarium remains a mystery, but for now, let's marvel at the majestic mola moments while we muse on the mosaic of marine magic!
#monterey bay aquarium#mola mola a fish so nice they named it twice#were still convinced a group is called a guac of molas#here comes the sunfish do do do do#dont tell jay#sunfish sideye is a vibe
