A pair of lake chubsuckers. They're an overall golden color with slightly elongated fins. Their bodies are short and stout, especially compared to other sucker species

When it comes to fish with unfortunate names, the chubsucker really got screwed. So for this #FishOfTheWeek let's learn enough for them to redeem themselves. There are 4 species of chubsucker, all belonging to the Erimyzon genus. And if you think their genus name saves them, you're wrong

When we think about fish large enough to attack people, sharks are usually what comes to mind. However, there is one fish in the ocean that even most sharks would choose to leave alone. And that is the goliath grouper, a fitting choice for #FishOfTheWeek

Glass catfish are a species of freshwater catfish that is nearly clear. Their skull is the most visible part of their body and the rest just kind of blends into the background

When it comes to remaining unseen, there are many animals with insanely good camouflage. But fish really take camouflage to every extreme. For this #FishOfTheWeek, let's look at fishes power of invisibility

A large Atlantic Giant Grouper. Grouper are at risk of size reductions due to overfishing

Today is World Fisheries Day, so for #FishOfTheWeek let's talk about a fisheries issue that is becoming more and more common, reductions in size of fishes due to fishing pressure. This may seem like a small issue but is in fact a major problem for many reasons

It's time for #FishOfTheWeek and today I want to talk about a really cool fish that has become much maligned (not without reason) in North America. That's right, today we're gonna talk about the so-called Frankenfish. The snakehead

A whole group of gar swimming together. They appear to be longnose gar, with long, skinny snouts and a single row of large spots down their sides. They are likely coming together to spawn

I didn't get to do #FishOfTheWeek last week because I was in Poland for field work, but it's gar week this week so of course I have to talk about one of my all-time favorite fishes. And there's a lot know, so get ready to learn something new

It's Friday, which means it's time for another #FishOfTheWeek! And today we're actually gonna talk about plankton. When most people think of plankton they think of algae, maybe bacteria. But plankton can be any organism unable to control their own movement in water (or air)

A split image of oarfish. The top is an old photo of an oarfish that washed ashore being held by at least 16 men, illustrating its length. The bottom image is an artistic rendering of what this fish looks like. It is long with a silvery body and dark speckles. It has a bright red dorsal fin that runs its entire length and has long, extended rays at the head and on the pelvic fins

I forgot to post a #FishOfTheWeek yesterday because I was enjoying the new wine festival, but I've got a great one to make up for it. Meet the longest fish in the world at up to 30 feet long, the giant oarfish. This fish inhabits the least explored part of our world, and we know little about it

I think we all know by now that deep sea fish hold the patent on weird. But for this #FishOfTheWeek let's talk about some deep sea fish that decided they needed weird eyes, of all things. The binocular fish is quite appropriately named

A whale shark swimming in the open ocean. It is a beautiful gray color with a unique pattern of white stripes and dots. The patterns are as unique as human fingerprints!

Fish that live in the open ocean all face the problem of water temperatures being cold, sometimes extremely so. This is an even bigger issue if you're a predator trying to chase down prey. So what's a cold-blooded fish to do? Let's talk about 1 solution for #FishOfTheWeek, gigantothermy

If you live in the Northern Hemisphere you are likely aware of at least one species in the family I want to talk about for today's #FishOfTheWeek. The Percidae family is found in both North America and Europe and contains the well-known perch and walleye
