Late night This week's theme is "hard-working fishes". Great White Sharks have some of the longest migrations (distance-wise) of any shark species. Individuals have been documented travelling from South Africa to Australia and back again.

Unfinished Bluehead Chub for This fathers day, spare a thought for the fish that, using only his mouth and a lot of determination, builds a huge mound of stones (often several feet across in less than 24h!) to protect his eggs, and guards them until they hatch.

The "infamous" Red Bellied Piranha for this week's Maybe one of the most misrepresented fish ever (along with several sharks). Piranha swim in schools as a means of protecting themselves from larger predators as opposed to it being a hunting strategy. 🐟

Like , I also picked a forehead brooding nurseryfish (Kurtus gulliveri) for Father’s Day See their post for egg placement. Read that this strategy may keep the eggs out of hypoxic/anoxic conditions.
I liked the colors quite a bit.
