A mola mola!!! Also known as an ocean sunfish. Mola is latin for ‘millstone’ which they resemble being as they are round, gray, and roughly textured. As you can tell, they are pretty big. And are the heaviest known bony fish in the world (weighing in at over 2,200 lbs)! Their favorite food is jellyfish. These poor babies have a horrible time with skin parasites. Which is why they bask sideways at the surface, to allow seabirds to peck the wretched creatures off. Sunfish are very docile with human divers, and pose no threat. Just really big sweet-hearts basically.
