You silly fools! These aren't mutants; they're obviously deep sea fish. They live miles undersea where it is very dark and thus have no need to worry about appearances.

Hmm looks like something I eat in the evening. Very freaky with sharp teeth, slimy, long, big, some with antennas, some with sharp claws, some with huge eyes, but nothing to be afraid about, ol' chap!

Anyway, I would actually freak if I saw one of those while swimming.

In all my knowledge of deep sea fish, I have never heard of a two-headed lobster. Though I could be wrong.
That fifth one down would look awesome hanging on my bedroom wall. And the blob fish looks like my maths teacher.

You know that they're supposed to look like that. They have no concern for the quaint, human values of aesthetic quality.

I've met most of those before. Those chimeras, the lizardfish, the squid... that sea spider is a classic example of a deep sea pycnogonid, very weird arthropods, I identified a wayward specimen dredged up in Southampton Water just a few months ago. Their bodies are so small that their digestive system extends into the legs, and they have no respiratory system.

The "blob fish" is the only one too badly damaged to identify.

I've seen a lot of those before (not first hand, mind) and the others don't look particularly wild. Didn't see a two headed lobster in those pictures, though...

Those "heads" are simply extensions of the carapace and the antennae appendages.

Yo Moxco how do you do that, like turn a whole link into a couple words? I've always wondered how some people do that, unfortunately I can't find anyone to teach me how.

Uch, off topic:
Normally like this: *text to hyperlink*

But this doesn't always count on certain forums.
EDIT: damnit it did work.....

ignore the full stops: [.u.r.l=*link]*text to hyperlink*[./u.r.l]

Easy. here are the 5 steps.

1. Write the word you want to hyperlink. I'll write 'Oddworld Inhabitants'.
2. Go to the destination site the [site you want to link your word[s] to]. I'll go to 'oddworld.com'.
3. Copy the address of the destination site.
4. Highlight the word you want to hyperlink.
5. At the top of the post box you should see a little icon of an earth with a chain in front off it. Click on it [delete the 'http://']. and paste your link.
Now you should have a hyperlink. Heres mine:'Oddworld Inhabitants'

Mutant fish? Were you people dropped on the head?

Man, I so wish I got to this thread earlier. I'd have had a blast making fun of everyone who thought that those fish were mutants of some sort.

Just think of the damage these fish could cause. Some have HUGE teeth, and would attack you on sight. Some of those would probably spray you with poison of some sort. Maybe some are harmless...but that Viper Fish would scare me if I was waay underwater.

I'd grab the nearest rock to me and spend as much time as I could attempting to crush the thing. I know it sounds cruel, but it's instinct when I see a spider. I'd hate to see what it's like when it actually moves. Yuck.
