Dunno if it counts as deep sea, but coelacanths =)
Deep enough to hide until roughly WWI
Angler Fish
I was team Angler Fish when I got here but damn, there are some good candidates mentioned!
Idk if I have a fave deep sea creature, I’ll have to think about that… but I’m rather fond of coconut crabs. They steal shit from people, and are enormous.
And maybe they killed Amelia Earhart!
Or at least stole her heart and ear
Oarfish give me a sense of dread in the pit of my stomach, they’re so cool
Whats the scientific term for that oceangate thing that sploaded with all the billionaires?
Karma?
Goblin shark
Ez-pz
Goblins can be sharks?
Well, sharks be gobblin for sure.
Bone-eating tube-worms!
Sea Turtle!
Leatherback sea turtles are hella neat! Deepest diving of all of the turtles. Absolutely fearless.
Cuttlefish
Someday, cuttlefish will start the plan to take over the world in june 28th, 2025.
I like angler fish. Finding Memo had a huge effect on me, and I was well into my 20’s when that came out lol.
This fish wish never cease to be cool
It’s not a super creative or interesting answer, but I’d be lying if I said anything other than the giant squid. That’s gotta be one of the wildest most alien things on our planet. Squid are already fascinatingly weird and now you’re telling me there are squids the size of a horse that fight whales at the bottom of the ocean? Amazing. Please stay down at the bottom of the sea where I am not. I know the colossal squid is bigger, but it’s cool that the giant one is probably the basis of some of our most enduring myths of sea monsters and the name “giant squid” just rolls off the tongue really well
What about the Colossal Squid
No, that’s how you engage with people when you’re six years old.
This comment has “I’m not a kid anymore, I’m 17 years old” energy
Which one is yours, then? :)
Bigfin squid
Most alien shit on our planet
Those are those monstrosities with the enormous tendril tentacles, right? They look fictional, Iove them
