And with today's 'O'opu 'alam'o, we say goodbye to the southwestern US portion of the #25DaysofFishmas road trip. From a goby that climbs up waterfalls, to a pupfish that lives in 90°F water, the fishes of the southwest are a resilient bunch! On to the Pacific Northwest + Alaska!

Congrats to everyone who guessed "alligator gar" for this week's #SundayFishSketch-#25DaysofFishmas mash-up!

There are 3 big catfish species in North America (big in body size AND popularity): the channel, flathead, and blue catfish. Blue catfish are most often confused with channel catfish, but have a straight anal fin (the channel has a curved one) #25DaysofFishmas

Welcome to the Sunday night before Finals Week, everyone

An old #SundayFishSketch that fits this week's theme of "Fish that live inside other animals" - many species of cichlids are maternal mouthbrooders, meaning baby cichlids live in their mom's mouth until they are big enough to avoid predators!

Signed, eel-ed, delivered, I'm yours.

Dragon moray eel (Enchelycore pardalis) #SundayFishSketch

The threadfin rainbowfish (Iriatherina werneri) from tropical northern Australia and New Guinea scoffs at the idea that freshwater fishes are drab 🌈 #SundayFishSketch

To all the moms who are balancing things right now, female African cichlids can relate - many cichlid species are maternal mouthbrooders, meaning moms carry their eggs and/or young in their mouths. During this time (sometimes up to a month!), she doesn't eat #SundayFishSketch

For the @AlaskaSeaLife-themed #SundayFishSketch, the grunt sculpin. Grunt sculpins camouflage themselves by sitting in empty barnacle shells and facing outward - in this position, the shape of its head makes it look like a barnacle!
