Bargibant's pygmy seahorse is camouflaged to look like a part of a fan coral. They were only found when the coral was closely studied in the lab.

The bizarre tube-eye fish lives in the deep sea & makes nightly vertical migrations to feed on plankton. They grow to 30 cm long & their tail fin rays extend to 60 cm! Its eyes are tubes, resembling binoculars & it can expand its mouth to 40 times its original size!
