My word, this fish is bizarre:

Researchers at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute recently solved the half-century-old mystery of a fish with tubular eyes and a transparent head.

The things at the front of its head that look like eyes are actually nostrils. The green bodies inside its head are the eyes.

What the heck is a fish doing with *nostrils*???

And yes, that is the weirdest-looking fish I ever saw.

nostrils? Probably smelling things with them.

And, you know, if someone came up with something like that in fiction? We would just roll our eyes!

That looks like some weird alien from an SF movie.

Way cool!
