Cup Divers discover the fish that can crawl instead of swim in Indonesia

Divers in Indonesia have discovered this strange fish, which crawls instead of swims.
The fist-sized animal, spotted off Ambon Island, is thought to be unique because of its flat face and forward-looking eyes.

It uses leg-like pectoral fins to burrow into crevices.

The fist-sized fish was spotted off Ambon Island by Indonesian divers

These and other traits suggest the animal could represent a new family of fish, announced University of Washington expert Ted Pietsch, when the photo was released.

'Seeking out these fish is probably going to be like the holy grail of divers for a while,' said Randolph Shorten, an Ambon Island-based dive operator, in a statement.

cute looking rare fish .

人情味不是偏私而是博爱,

不是施舍而是关怀。

The platypus... ok well a fish that crawls instead of swim. It sounds like we get a good idea how the beta version of the lung fish or mudskipper started out

That's a freaky yet interesting looking fish. Note: if you concentrate on just the patterns on its skin, you'll get a bit dizzy. xD
