What is Eelpout?

Eelpout is a family of fish with rays with the scientific name Zoarcidae. Eelpouts are found some of the coldest oceans in the world. Thanks to its prolonged, compressed appearance, it is often confused for eel. Burbot fish, which are commonly found in large lakes, are often wrong due to their very similar appearance. But Burbot is the kind of Lota family. Approximately 40 Eelpout species live in the Polar Sea, with more than half prosperous in the polar regions of the sea, while the rest occurs primarily in slightly warmer floor waters. Almost all Eelpout species share the same basic physical properties. All fish species usually have one long dorsal fin, which extends almost throughout the body to the end of the tail, where it usually encounters anal fins. The fish is USULY Brown/Tan and have light belts that extend vertically down through the dorsal fin and body. All are species with layering of eggs and usually lays adhesive eggs on the seabed.

There is a major size change between different types of eels. Smaller species, such as half -bond, are usually only 5.5 inches (14 cm) in length, but larger species, such as the ocean bond, can be up to 38 inches (92 cm) and weigh more than £ 11 (5 kg). The ocean bond is also aware because its body contains a special protein freezing anthri, which prevents freezing in the coldest waters. Scientists have studied fish to see if this protein can be used to accelerate growth speed in other fish or even be used to maintain human organs and tissues.

Most eels, regardless of size and habitat, tend to be middle fish up to a deep range, and are usually found in soveliscales or sand, where they lie either on the ground or first bury in it. The prey of Eelpot differs from species to species, but most feed on small amphipods. Larger species such as Eelpout Wattled will also eat shrimp, crabs and even other UHsteed. In all species, they are prey for larger fish such as COD and Halibut, as well as for various seafoods coming from this area. Some species, such as a strangely named fish physician, are often also prey for seals.
