Coolest fish ever is the hottest - fish that skips through lava!

2th February 2007

Scientists have witnessed the extreme lifestyle of tonguefish that like to skip across pools of molten sulphur. The animals - a type of flatfish - were filmed on three expeditions to undersea volcanoes in the western Pacific. Huge numbers were seen to congregate around the sulphur ponds which well up from beneath the seafloor.

Take a look at this strange fish here.
