The Longhorn Cowfish

All sorts of creatures exist in the deep sea, and this one struck me as being particularly odd with its horns protruding out of its head like that of a cows or a bulls. This brightly colored horn fish is called the Longhorn Cowfish (Lactoria Cornuta) and lives in the Indo-Pacific region.

This fish is only about 10 cm long, and although it is not really suited for a home aquarium, it is becoming increasingly popular as a pet. I say..let the poor things live in their wast ocean, don’t keep it locked up!
