Strange Fish Washes Ashore
It always baffles me when sea creatures wash ashore and no one seems to be able to know what in the world it is! Well same thing happend here, when this strange looking fish was found on the shores of the Cayman Brac a few years back, and no one could identify it.
The weird fish is roughly thirty inches long, more than half of which is a long, eel-like tail attached to a fish body. It has pale pink scales, pectoral fins, a dorsal fin and a small feathery fin on its belly. Can you identify this fish?

I think it might be a variation of a Coryphaenoides rupestris. Also known as Roundnose grenadier.
