There are over 300 species of Snailfish. While many live in shallow waters (tidepools) and river estuaries, some have adapted to the cold water, as well as the high-pressure depths of the world's deepest trenches over 7,000m. [8] In general, the snailfish (notably genus Pseudoliparis) is the most common and dominant family in the hadal zone. [4]
In total, there were up to 23 mature eggs for each female (each larger than 5 mm or 0.20 in in diameter), which were alternated with immature, small eggs, the number of which was about 850. Eggs of intermediate size were rarely seen. Even in the largest eggs, no structures were found that indicate the development of the embryo within the eggs. [1]
Pseudoliparis amblystomopsis, or the hadal snailfish, is a species of snailfish from the hadal zone of the Northwest Pacific Ocean, [1] including the Kuril–Kamchatka and Japan Trenches. [ 2 ] In October 2008, a team from British and Japanese institutes discovered a shoal of Pseudoliparis amblystomopsis at a depth of about 7,700 m (25,300 ft ...
Although most snailfish live no deeper than the bathyal zone (less than 4,000 m [13,000 ft] deep), some live at greater depths than any other fish. In 2008, a UK-Japan team discovered a shoal of Pseudoliparis amblystomopsis snailfish at a depth of 7,700 m (25,300 ft) in the Japan Trench . [ 18 ]
Careproctus is a genus of snailfishes found in benthic and benthopelagic habitats in the Atlantic, Pacific, Arctic and Southern Oceans. Whether they truly are absent from the Indian Ocean (except for a couple of species in Subantarctic waters) is unknown and might be an artifact of limited sampling. [ 1 ]

Bluntnose minnows can be found in lakes, rivers, ponds and streams, showing a preference for shallow, clear water with a sandy bottom. [4] Their habitats range from headwater bogs, swamps, and springs to rivers, ponds, and lakes. Sometimes, up to a dozen species of minnows can be found in a single stream of moderate size.
