According to researchers and scientists, only 5-7 percent of the ocean floor has been mapped and explored, and only 0.5 percent of the ocean itself. In other words, 95.5 percent of the ocean is unexplored! This is truly amazing, considering that the ocean is one of the most important ecosystems on our planet. It provides a home for so many creatures and helps to regulate the Earth’s climate. The ocean remains a mysterious place with many weird fish species that are yet to be found in the deepest parts of the ocean.
It’s no wonder that scientists believe there is so much more to learn about the ocean and all of the life within it. The following 17 fish species are only some that have been discovered in our oceans and they are as alien-looking as anything you could find anywhere else.
Watch these weird fish and bizarre deep-sea creatures…
1) Bloodybelly Comb Jelly
2) Dumbo Octopus
3) Salp = Weird fish.
4) Goblin Shark
5) More weird fish: Blobfish.
6) Bobbit Worm
7) Weird fish like the Barreleye has a transparent skull!
8) Flower Hat Jellyfish
9) Atolla Jellyfish
10) Weird fish like the Sarcastic Fringehead.

12) Pink See-Through Fantasia
13) The Squidworm is one weird fish!
14) Terrible Claw Lobster
15) Water Bear

Some of these fish species just freak me out but they are truly wonders of nature. Why look to the vastness of outer space when there are so many sea creatures just waiting to be discovered in our own backyard?
Please share these wonderful (and sometimes dangerous!) ocean fish species with your family and friends.
