Strange fishes

Giant jellyfish warning off the coast of Japan. Japan has previously been swarmed with these as seen in pictures here. Never knew jellyfish can be so big but the sushi with jellyfish taste good. Are these giants edible? The undersea world and its deep sea creatures are still very mysterious.




A strange white fish that looks like a dragon caught by a fisherman in Johor after the big flood in Johor in Nov/Dec 2006. Chinese myth say its Sea Dragon King "Hoi Loong Wong's son" they caught,so the Sea King angry and send flood to Johor. Amusing.



Explanation of "dragon fish", its actually called Oarfish.
