Do you like fish?
Deep-sea mysteries and myths?
A pinch (maaaaybe) of horror, but mainly wonder for narratives about the dark depths?
We have a new tumblr blog for all of this that is perfect for you!

A pair of them.
Again.
This time, with a surprise.

#Oarfish #DeepSeaFish #FollowThePistrix
The rarest of the rare! This holy-grail dream fish is a larval-stage #monkfish, aka #goosefish.
Shot in the wild, using scuba, while diving at night over water several thousand feet deep, several miles offshore from Kumejima, Okinawa.

A collection of clips from February 3-10, 2024, off West Palm Beach, Florida, USA. While I would have liked to have looked at them ~2 years ago, that was a busy time, and no longer doing the suuuuper time-consuming art exhibits has freed me up in so many ways!!!

Friend? Or...Food?!
Little digital redraw. Sketch is somewhere on my timeline, lol. I imagine this deep sea fish has bioluminescent fins that draw in other creatures. He likes making friends...but he's also quite hungry ^^

Drawing of an Angler Fish and Baxter from Hazbin Hotel in the upper right corner
I was inspired to draw an angler fish after the "meme" of the one who got to the surface last year, and Baxter!

Four simple drawings, made in black and white, of different oarfish (Regalecus Glesne). They look a bit like tattoo designs. Followthepistrix.
What should we say? We really, really, really like oarfish.
And in these days... well, months... we feel very fascinated by these creature. So, here's some stuff from our sketchbooks.
#TraditionalArt #Oarfish #Pistrix #DeepSeaFish #Fish
Illustration, done in black ballpoint pen, of a pistrix (a creature with a humanoid torso and a regaleco-like lower body) looking at a smartphone and saying (in French) "Wikipedia says you're a Stylephorus chordatus." A tubefish (Stylephorus chordatus) looks at the phone with him, over his shoulder, and simply says "bup."
Sangreal has a very special pet... it's a Stylephorus chordatus, or tubefish (look it up! It's a hilarious creature) named... er... "Anxiety You Get When You Smell Ammonia in the Water," or "Ammonia" for short.
A very special little fish, wouldn't you agree?

When it comes to my Aliens Collection, the weirder the better - and few fish are weirder than the larval-stage #Lamprogrammus #cuskeel

so by the looks of it, this is the differences between the old and new model of the tarakona from #seashine (art by me!) #deepsea #deepseafish
A quick clip of the first-ever sighting of a bony-eared assfish (#Acanthonus armatus) in Okinawa!

I presume this is a type of Myctophidae lanternfish, but I’m not 100% sure.
TL ~2.5cm
Shot offshore from Palm Beach, FL in Feb2025

A big, beautiful, bebeh whalefish, drifting with the plankton over the nighttime abyss.
Body without the crazy “tapetail” is ~6cm

Crazy-looking larval cusk eel with an impressive external gut. We’re still not sure why having the intestines on the outside is advantageous, but there must be a good reason 🤔

One of the smallest Armored Sea Robins that I’ve ever seen - its body a little larger than a pea.
This is the same species featured in my Aliens Collection Print, “Alien #27”.

A beautifully-crowned #Tonguefish larvae (#Cynoglossidae sp.), drifting with the #plankton in #Okinawa. Don’t worry - it gets more “tongue-y” as it gets to its adult stage.

Whalefish are often called tapetails when in their larval stage. This one’s tail was ~4x its 1.5” body length.

Done traveling for now & settled into Indonesia.
A beautiful larval-stage #tripodfish flares its fins for my camera.
A similar species to the one shown in my print, Alien #4.

A very rare & yet-to-be-classified species of deep-water #anglerfish in its larval stage. Anyone care to lend me their sub so I can go searching for an adult lying on the seafloor at 2500m deep?😁

Of the several different species of larval-stage #dragonfish that I occasionally encounter on my Aliens Collection dives, this is my fav. More distinct finnage, and super cool color dots.
