Fish live at a depth of 7.7 km

A group of Japanese and British scientists have discovered a strong group of 17 fish that reside at a depth of 7.7 km compared to the sea surface of the Japan Trench region (subsidence at the bottom of the North Pacific Sea off the East North Japan, reaching a depth of more than 9 km - photos).

To record the fish, they used a remote-controlled self-propelled device designed to limit very large pressures to such depths. This fish has a scientific name Pseudoliparis amblystomopsis about 30 cm long.

Although living in a dark environment and extremely high pressure, they are very alert. The recorded images show that these fish can hunt in the dark.

The record of living in the world's deepest water belongs to the Abyssobrotula galatheae, which lives in the bottom of Puerto Rico Trench waters at a depth of more than 8 km, discovered in 1970. However, it cannot be lived when given. to the surface.
