I get to swim with broadnose sevengill sharks in the open ocean tank as a dive volunteer at @AquariumOTheBay. Super chill, they mostly hang out in the upper area of the tank and ignore me. Sevengills are the only shark on the west coast with seven gill slits. #SundayFishSketch
A repost of a nurse shark for #SundayFishSketch. I had fun with trying a new technique. Nurse sharks are ovoviviparous: they gestate embryos inside eggs for six months before birthing around 20 pups.
Today's #SundayFishSketch is a bit off topic, though I would like to see this fish. It is a success story in sustainability: the Acadian redfish. It is found in the Northwestern Atlantic. It is a fish that had been low in numbers back in the 1990s,

Heavily anthropomorphized this time to set the desired mood effectively. 3/3
hello #SundayFishSketch! i made these #Oarfish pixels quite some time ago - by now they are an integral part of my social media presence. the pair shows a daylight and a dark, bioluminescent version! i still love them dearly and will always be fascinated by this species.
For #SundayFishSketch I chose to do a quick drawing of an Opah (took some liberties with colors). Currently it is the only known endothermic fish - that is it can keep its body at a higher temp than its surroundings.
My #SundayFishSketch is of a spotted archerfish (Toxotes chatareus), which has the ability to shoot water a distance of almost 5 ft out of the water, and can target its prey items just as far away! They can also recognize human faces, and this one is happy to see you :)
Been too busy to paint recently, but here are some paintings I did in between flights and rapid tests. #fishart #marineart #sciart #sundayfishsketch
Without realizing it, I was on theme for this week’s #SundayFishSketch. Salmon are anthropologically important for a variety of reasons. For my ancestors they were a symbol of wisdom and an important food source. Here were my studies today on Kokanee Salmon perspective.
#SundayFishSketch in progress. It's an endangered fish, can you tell which one?
For #SundayFishSketch nothing says more holiday than a full festivity.
Here directly from my homeland the Mesonauta festivum, acará bandeira or cichlid festivus.
My #sundayfishsketch that includes some featured #TwitterCloutChristmasCrowd fish and a Christmas tree worm. Happy holidays everyone!
I recently recycled a sketch… I really lile the #syngnathe as Rudolph 🥳🤩☃️🦈 #sundayfishsketch #fishytheme #sciart #fishyfriday
Hello friends and followers, I didn't forget about #WhaleDayFriday, it's combined with #SundayFishSketch! I've gotten requests for shark drawings so why not share them finally!
California has a wide variety of shark species, but these three are the ones relevant to my research.
Thanks again to @Lampichthys and the whole #SundayFishSketch crew for another great year of guessing and sketching #25DaysofFishmas fish! All of this year's mystery species were (unintentionally) very colorful - the bluegill, white sucker, and yellow perch!
