Fish Whose Ugliness Grows on You
After seeing so many, it's hard not to develop a soft spot for these hideous creatures.
The Reticulate Stargazer
Its very name makes me feel very sorry for him, because it's like all his life he's gazing at the sky above him and wishing that he can be "part of our world" (can you hear Ariel singing now?)
If you look closely at the Crocodile Flathead, you'll notice that the patterns on his skin are quite gorgeous. Their very interesting eyes also make up for everything. Style ada, kalah tidak apa. In the tone of Kyle from South Park, "we've learnt something today". Don't anyhow call people ugly.
This isn't a crocodile flathead, but it too has very decorative skin
