Anomalopidae

Anomalopidae are a family of beryciform fish distinguished by bioluminescent organs located underneath their eyes, for which they are named. These light organs contain luminous bacteria and can be "shut off" by the fish using either a dark lid or by being drawn into a pouch.

In this simulation, you are able to explore how these unique fish work and communicate in the depths of the sea. Change their environment through the buttons on screen and watch them glow!
