This is it, folks. You're looking at the tuna-substitute of the near future. And we're not kidding, this is an actual living entity in the ocean, and if we're not careful, it will be creatively hidden in menus as "white fish surprise".
We happen to like it, not only because it was Evolution's aborted extra credit assignment but also because truth is stranger than fiction. This is the blobfish. It doesn't do much. As evidenced by the photo, it doesn't possess much of a body structure. It has maybe two or three muscles, therefore it can't really propel itself through the water. It just kind of...hovers. As it floats right above the ocean floor it waits for nonsense food to float by. It eats things we'd never consider fish food. But then again...our future might look eerily similar at the rate we're going.
