Very cool. the wiki for that other fish, the shallow water snailfish, Amblystomopsis.
According to Wikipedia, the Pseudoliparis amblystomopsis is a species of fish that belongs to the family Liparidae. Here are some key facts about the shallow water snailfish:
The shallow water snailfish is found in the Pacific Ocean, specifically in the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench, which is one of the deepest parts of the ocean.
Despite its name, the shallow water snailfish is actually adapted to live at extreme depths, with individuals having been found at depths of up to 7,500 meters (24,600 feet).
The shallow water snailfish is a small fish, typically measuring between 12 and 15 centimeters (4.7 to 5.9 inches) in length.
This fish has a soft, gelatinous body and lacks a swim bladder, which helps it to survive at high pressures in the deep sea.
The shallow water snailfish is a predator, feeding on small crustaceans and other fish that live in the deep ocean.
Because of its extreme depth range and unique adaptations, the shallow water snailfish has attracted the interest of researchers studying deep sea biology and physiology.
