This is the blobfish. It inhabits the deep waters off the coasts of mainland Australia and Tasmania, as well as the waters of New Zealand. Blobfish are typically shorter than 30 cm. When you take it above water, that is why it has its "blobby" appearance.

this is the whale shark. The whale shark is a slow-moving filter feeding shark and the largest known extant fish species.
5
This is the angler fish. Ranging in color from dark gray to dark brown, these carnivores have huge heads that bear enormous, crescent-shaped mouths full of long, fang-like teeth angled inward for efficient prey grabbing. Their length can vary from 8.9 cm (3.5 in) to over 1 m (3 ft) with weights up to 45 kg (100 lb). When approached, the fish retreated rapidly, but in 74% of the video footage, it drifted passively, oriented at any angle.

This is the narwhal. The narwhal is most closely related to the beluga whale. Together, these two species comprise the only extant members of the family Monodontidae, sometimes referred to as the "white whales". Like the beluga, narwhals are medium-sized whales. Each year, they migrate from bays into the ocean as summer comes.
7
This is a family of sperm whales. The sperm whale can be found anywhere in the open ocean. Females and young males live together in groups while mature males live solitary lives outside of the mating season. Females give birth every four to twenty years, and care for the calves for more than a decade.

This is the vampire squid. The vampire squid is a small, deep-sea cephalopod found throughout the temperate and tropical oceans of the world.As a phylogenetic relict it is the only known surviving member of its order, first described and originally classified as an octopus in 1903 by German teuthologist Carl Chun, but later assigned to a new order together with several extinct taxa. The vampire squid reaches a maximum total length c. 30 cm (0.98 ft). Its 15-cm (6-in) gelatinous body varies in colour from velvety jet-black to pale reddish, depending on location and lighting conditions. A webbing of skin connects its eight arms, each lined with rows of fleshy spines or cirri; the inner side of this "cloak" is black.
