Regalecus glesne (Regal)

It is tiger green and quite monstrous with dark red fins.

REGALCUS GLESNE is a very special fish. It is up to the Regallea family, which is a family of bone fish present mainly in the oceans. This fish is commonly called the "king of the oceans", due to its imposing size. REGALCUS GLESNE can reach lengths of more than three meters, which makes it one of the greatest known fish to date.

The body of Regalecus Glesne is lying and threading, with a narrow head and a mouth in the shape of a beak. Its skin is smooth and elastic, and it is covered with spots and blue, yellow and white strips which give it a very colorful appearance. REGALCUS GLESNE also has two long caudal fins, which allow it to quickly move into the water.

REGALCUS GLESNE is mainly pelagic, which means that it lives in the free waters of the ocean, to depths of up to 1000 meters. It feeds mainly on small fish, crustaceans and molluscs, which it captures thanks to its mouth in the shape of a beak. REGALCUS GLESNE is a lonely and territorial fish, which vigorously defends its territory against other fish.

REGALCUS GLESNE is a very unusual fish, which is difficult to observe in nature. It is mainly present in the cold and shallow waters of the Atlantic Ocean, but it is also found in the waters of the Pacific Ocean. Unfortunately, Regalecus Glesne is threatened with extinction due to intensive fishing and ocean pollution.
