Oarfish

Oarfish is a long friend that lives in the Pelagic Zone. He got caught on the shore by finding a crab ('cause they eat crustaceans), and getting caught on the shore. But with the help of his friend, the Elephant Seal, he got back in the water

Facts:

Oarfish are large, greatly elongated, pelagic Lampriform fishes comprising the small family Regalecidae.[1 ] Found in all temperate to tropical oceans yet rarely seen, the oarfish family contains four species in two genera. One of these, the king of herrings (Regalecus glesne), is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the longest bony fish alive, at up to 17 metres (56 ft) in length.[2 ] [3 ]

The common name oarfish is presumably in reference to either their highly compressed and elongated bodies, or to the former (but now discredited) belief that the fish "row" themselves through the water with their pelvic fins.[4 ] The family name Regalecidae is derived from the Latin regalis, meaning "royal". The occasional beachings of oarfish after storms, and their habit of lingering at the surface when sick or dying, make oarfish a probable source of many sea serpent tales.

Although the larger species are considered game fish and are (to a minor extent) fished commercially, oarfish are rarely caught alive; their flesh is not well regarded due to its gelatinous consistency.
