Despite the subjectivity of the perception of beauty, there are things that cannot be looked at without admiration. These include the underwater world. The beauty and uniqueness of some representatives of the Underwater Kingdom is amazing. But most striking is the great variety of the most beautiful fish in the world. Photos and descriptions of the beautiful representatives of the ichthyofauna we present to you today.

20. Royal centropig

The Royal Centropig, also called the Centropig of Fire, combines enviable stamina and bright color. It looks more than spectacular in aquariums and, as a whole, easily adapts to an artificial environment. In nature, centropig prefers clear water lagoons and reef slopes. It inhabits the Central and Western Pacific, less common in Indonesia.

19. Angel lyrebird decorated

This "angel" fish is quite whimsical in its care: for a normal existence in the aquarium environment it needs a large space, always clean water, pebbles and special food. Lyrebird angel is rarely found in Russia due to the high price. The name of this fish is determined by its structure: the body is elongated, and the tail has a lyre shape.

18. Royal angel fish

Angel fish is an elegant and beautiful name for fish, and indeed it captivates the eye with its beauty. Although she loves to stay in the shade, her beautiful shape and outstanding color are hard to miss and appreciate. This is a rather capricious fish: it loves a lot of space, can hardly stand being in captivity, and also prefers loneliness and solitude. Even if there are hundreds of fish in the aquarium, the angel fish can be seen immediately, along its flat body with large bright stripes.

17. Radiant Lionfish

Radiant lionfish is one of the most unusual and spectacular fish. Her body has a fanciful shape and a specific cover. The color is pale red, brown and black vertical stripes. But the main feature is that its dorsal fin has more than a dozen poisonous rays, the injection of which can lead to death. These rays are interconnected by a pinkish-brown membrane, so when moving this fish resembles a fiery flame.

16. Moorish idol

The Moorish idol is a very beautiful and graceful fish. One cannot disagree with the fact that this particular type of fish has been familiar to each of us since childhood: the image of the Moorish idol is often found both in the visual arts and in everyday life (for example, on curtains in the bathroom, kitchen potholders, etc.). Of course, the poachers did not bypass this species as well, which put it on the brink of extinction. That is why the idol is almost never found in aquariums.

15. Mandarin

These fish are also called rainbow beauties. They are characterized by a bright color, which is unique for each individual. The main colors "involved" in their wearable design include all the colors of the rainbow. All of them form unusual and intricate "pictures" on the body of a fish.

14. Picasso triggerfish rectangular

This very large-sized fish often reaches up to 30 centimeters in length and is an excellent decoration for large panoramic aquariums. The main feature of the triggerfish are its eyes, rotating independently of each other.

13. The surgeon is royal blue

We all remember and love the cartoon “Finding Nemo”. It was after its release that this species of fish became so popular. A character named Dory was a blue royal surgeon. This fish is also famous for its bright color: a catchy combination of blue-violet and bright yellow colors. "Surgeons" prefer to hide in the crevices of sea reefs, where they hide from predators, and also find food in the form of algae.

12. Guban six-lane

The six-lane guban, or guban-tansy, as it is also called, got its name thanks to six bright horizontal stripes on the sides. This species of fish rarely reaches 7 centimeters in length, leads a daily life, while living in the very depths, burying itself in sand and loose soil. One of the natural properties of a six-lane wrasse is the destruction of harmful mollusks.

11. Tetraodon

Tetraodons can be ranked among the most controversial and unpredictable inhabitants of the aquarium. Outwardly, they are very cute: they have smooth skin, large round and humanly gullible eyes, a rounded body. But in reality they are poisonous and dangerous predators, which with their sharp and strong four teeth crush the ridges and fins of fish.

10. Mastsembela

A mastacomble is a serpentine fish with an elongated body, which sometimes reaches 90 centimeters in length. These fish are long-livers, and sometimes they live for almost 20 years. Mastacembla lives mainly in fresh water: in rivers, streams, lakes, swamps. It is buried in the ground, where it tracks its prey.

9. Fighting fish "Cockerel"

The cockerel is not just called a fighting fish: the reason for this is its cocky character. Aggressive behavior of males does not allow them to get along with other fish. Earlier in Asia, between these fish even “fighting” tournaments were held.

8. Lionhead fish

Lionheads are perhaps the most popular type of aquarium goldfish. Since these fish were bred by selection, they differ in a number of unusual features. The first is the lack of a dorsal fin. The second is a bizarre-shaped head with growths. Unlike other goldfish, lion heads have a more rounded and ovoid body.

7. Butterfly fish

The color of these fish really resembles butterflies: in nature there are various variations of the underbody pattern of these fish, but the most common color scheme is a combination of yellow, black and white flowers with vertical stripes throughout the body. Although butterfly fish belong to exotic inhabitants, they are familiar to almost all of us, because this is a favorite subject for naturalistic photographers.

6. Clown fish

Another reference to the cartoon “Finding Nemo”: the clown fish is the prototype of one of the main characters. Many consider this fish to be the brightest inhabitant of the deep sea - its bright orange color and contrasting white vertical stripes cannot but catch the eye. Interesting fact: all clown fish are born males, and during the course of life, an individual can change sex.

5. Parrot fish

Parrot fish is a breeding “product”, therefore, many of its physical features are deviations. For example, its oblong mouth opens vertically at a small angle, which creates difficulties in the nutrition process. Also, the fish is barren, therefore, they do not occur in nature, but are only hatched under artificial conditions by genetic scientists.

4. Seahorse

Seahorse actually resembles a horse with its bizarre shape, which is what distinguishes it from all other fish. Also specific is the model of his movement - head up. The coloring of the seahorse accurately imitates the color and texture of the terrain in which it is located.

3. Two-tone angel

It is also called Centropig Bicolor. The essence of the name lies in the color of this fish: on its body there is a clear border between bright blue and acid yellow, visually it looks so that the fish is divided into two equal colored parts. Two-tone angel can be found in the waters of the Indian and Pacific Oceans. It is worth noting that this species prefers to dwell at the very depths.

2. The Imperial Angel

Emperor angels are one of the most beautiful coral fish, which also change their color throughout life. The litter contains a black body with white and blue concentric stripes. In adults, the body is bright purple with about 25 thin diagonal stripes of yellow-red color. The skull becomes emerald above with age and red-brown below, with a characteristic bright mask around the eyes. "Ruler" lives on the coral reefs of the Indo-Pacific region.

1. Tulle apogon

A distinctive feature of the apogon are high branched fins and bright colors, mostly warm tones. They are not picky and can live in both sea and fresh water. These fish are very "sentimental": before breeding, individuals care for each other.

The beauty of exotic fish explains the desire of many people to establish an aquarium in their home or workplace. And today it is much easier to do this than before: after all, in the easy availability of almost all the means to care for even the most fastidious species. But because of such popularity, poaching is gaining momentum, which puts many breeds on the brink of extinction.
