The solution to Bit-o-critter round 5
Tuesday, April 13, 2010 at 6:08PM
Hi folks,
Round 5 of bit-o-critter was the most competitive yet. Eventually Akira triumphed, recognising the sarcastic fringehead, Neoclinus blanchardi, which is a relative of the blennies, that lives in the cold waters of the Pacific northwest. If you've watched Life on Discovery, you may recognise this fish from an awesome sequence they had of fringeheads fighting. Here's some other footage from YouTube of the same.
Like I said, it's weird that a fish with such a ridiculously large mouth gets named after some wussy little fringes on its head. Perhaps that was the sarcastic bit...
