There are more fishes in the rivers and seas than we ever expected to see.

A shining example of those unexpected fish, the sunfish illuminates the dark waters it swims in, each individual sporting a number of spots that change shape and number as time passes. When night falls and the sunfish's light wanes, moonfish can be seen darting hither and thither, the shape of the glow of their silvery bodies waxing and waning over the course of a month.
