      The deepest part of the ocean is about 11,000 m at the Mariana Trench, East of Japan, that’s deeper than Mount Everest is tall! The deepest living fish found is at about 8,000 m and is the Mariana snailfish.

      Most of the fish that live in deep waters look quite strange, they can have very big eyes or be blind due to the low light.👁️ Some have feelers to find prey better. And some have a lot of sharp teeth, as the best food that deep is other fish instead of plankton in shallower water.🐡
