Rat trap fish

The rat trap fish is a deep-sea fish, so don't expect to find it in any coral reefs. It lives in the dark zone where no light reaches. The rat trap fish uses red light to make it seem invisible, well at least it's face: it has some red light on the cheek. And then it attacks! Because this rat trap fish is the only deep-sea creature that can see red light.
