  1. Whatever that is it lives DEEP down where very little light reaches. Thus the ginormous eyes.

  3. I guess that's a Seeing Eye fish for blind divers?

  4. It's a Giant Grenadier. They can be found in the deeps off the Pacific coast, and they're fairly common. They're about 99% water. very soft, and most likely caught by a trawl net, hence the lack of scales. I went on a deepwater longline research trip once, and when they have their scales, they are a beautiful light iridescent green color. They have very little commercial value. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Giant+Grenadier&t=newext&atb=v206-1&iax=images&ia=images
