14 Flatfish, catfish,

16 Fish that swim in numbers, fish that swim alone.
17 No matter what they look like, they call the water home.
18 The discus is flat and round like a pancake, allowing it to swim easily among upright reeds. (Amazon basin) The flyingfish bursts up out of the water, spread its fins, and glides through the air to escape larger fish. (Warm ocean waters worldwide) The bluespotted stingray has stinging spines on its whiplike tail, which it uses to defend itself. (Oceans worldwide) The catfish uses feelers on its face to search for food on the river bottom. (Freshwaters of all continents except the Antarctic, and many oceans worldwide) The clownfish hides safely among the poisonous tentacles of sea anemones. It is protected from the poison by a slimy substance on its skin. (Pacific and Indian oceans) The giant kelpfish can change color to look like a piece of kelp. (Eastern Pacific Ocean) The butterflyfish uses its long, pointed snout to search the cracks of coral for tiny animals to eat. (Indian, Pacific, and Western and Eastern Central Atlantic oceans) When threatened, the porcupinefish blows up like a spiky balloon so it will appear too large to fit into a predator s mouth. (Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian oceans) The garden eel retreats into its sandy sea burrow at the slightest alarm. (Oceans worldwide) The mudskipper use its front fins like little legs to pull itself up, skip along the muddy shore, and even climb trees. (Coastal mangrove forests and mudflats worldwide) Lanternfishes and hatchetfishes flash lights located along their sides to stay together in the deepest, darkest parts of the ocean. (Oceans worldwide) Every year, the steelhead rainbow trout travels from the salty ocean water to fresh water to lay its eggs. (Eastern Pacific Ocean, but widely introduced elsewhere) The seahorse has a long tail like a monkey, which it uses to hold on to ocean plants. (Tropical coastal waters worldwide) The silver bellies and sides of sardines help them blend with the shiny light from the sky, making them almost invisible to predators. (Oceans worldwide) When threatened, the lionfish turns the sharp, venomous spines on its back toward its enemies. (Indian, Pacific, and western Atlantic oceans) Remoras attach themselves to a whale shark by suction disks on their heads, hitching a ride for miles and feeding on the shark s leftovers. (Oceans worldwide) The flounder can adjust the colored markings on its flat, discshaped body to match the ocean floor. Its eyes are located on the same side of its head. (Oceans worldwide) California grunions swim up on shore during high tide and bury their eggs on the sandy beach. (Pacific Ocean) Bluestriped snappers travel in groups or schools to better defend themselves from predators. (Indo-Pacific Ocean) The swordfish uses its long, sharp bill like a sword to kill other fishes. (Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific oceans; the Mediterranean Sea; the Sea of Marmara; the Black Sea; and the Sea of Azov.) The bright yellow mouth of the clown triggerfish resembles that of a clown. (Indo-Pacific Ocean) Also pictured on the last spread: fairy basslets (the orange fish is female and the multicolored fish is male); the emperor angelfish (yellow fish with blue stripes); and the blueringed angelfish (orange fish with blue stripes).
