This fish is thought to be the reason there are sighting of sea serpents.
The oarfish can reach up to 15 meters in length and weigh about 600 pounds. They also have a spiny dorsal fin giving them a somewhat...monsterish appearance. They are a deep dwelling fish, but when they are sick or dying tend to float at the surface.
