      Hey,

      one of the most common sea creatures are laternfish! They are found in all oceans world wide, and in particular in the deep sea.
      Their world wide biomass is 550 – 660 million metric tonnes, several times the entire world fisheries catches together.
      They are called laternfish because they produce light!
