So in a way, they DO get energy from the sun by using it to heat themselves. I love this fish

There is another reason sunfish bask near the surface and that's the parasites they accumulate. Because they' have no scales, only a mucus covered skin, it's much easier for parasites to latch on and some may even affect drag. So they float sideways at the surface and allow seabirds to pick at the parasites. The sunfish gets a bit of a cleanse and the birds get a free meal. Some fish hang around molas for the same reason, with the mola's size potentially protecting the smaller fish from their own predators. What I don't get though is how they are able to survive having huge chunks bitten out of them and they carry on as if it were a minor inconvenience at best. These things might seem like evolutionary accidents, but the fact that they have survived for as long as they have means that they've clearly done something right down the line.

@thatonejester3387

When you have a lot of parasites, unless the thing likes to eat parasites it tends to stay away, so prominent predators will learn real quickly to avoid sunfish if they want to feel good

Mola Mola genuinely seems like an unfinished prototype of a normal fish.

My grandfather saw one in the 1960s with his friends. The 3 of them were cruising on their sailboat, close to Madeira they were becalmed and my grand father went for a swim, after only a few minutes his two friends on the sailboat started screaming that there was a huge, giant, dorsal fin poking out of the water, my grand father had the fear of his life: he started swimming like crazy for the boat to climb back aboard. The Med is known for white sharks, particularly back then and for huge white sharks that would often get out of the med and swim close to Madeira where they’d attack blue fin Tuna going for the strait of Gibraltar and the Med from the Atlantic. After getting on board a moment passed, and then the fin got closer, that’s when they saw it was a huge mola mola, and stopped being so tense. My grandfather told me it was the one and only time he so suddenly felt for his life.

I had the pleasure of seeing one of these funny fish in the wild!! Two years ago I was surfing at Ocean Beach in San Francisco on a sunny day around spring and I had paddled out just past the break. I look over in the water and spot a weird white object, but upon inspection it was one of these! It was roughly 1 meter long and was on its side at the surface 2 feet away from me. We hung out for about 5 minutes and it didn’t mind me at all. The whole time it was on its side gently flapping its wings and splashing the surface, but not actually moving anywhere. I tried to stay with it to marvel at it for as long as possible, but eventually a wave came and when I emerged from the duck dive it was gone😢. 10/10 would hang with a Mola mola again!

But the fact that they are so unique and actually one of the most recent evolutionary path in the fish family is fascinating! You've really changed my mind about this fish.

So, if you are a sunfish, you won the lottery. When any creature lays that many eggs, the odds of being born at all is astronomical. You ARE that one in a billion.

“I dare you to eat all these eggs” really cracked me up. I love the humour in the narration and it reminds me how many wondrous adaptations there really are.

Sunfish share their bizarre vertical winged swimming pattern, known as "sculling" with other members of their order, Tetraodontiformes (triggerfish, puffers, etc). You can see a good example of some other sculling Tetraodonts by looking up "pelagic triggerfish". It might have been possible that sunfish have adapted their swimming style from an existence similar to these oceanic triggerfish. The dwarf mola, otherwise known as the slender sunfish, is a bizarre, high speed type of organism, and occupies a similar ecological niche as a mackerel. There's a video on them named "Mondfische (Ranzania lavis ?)" that shows them off really well.

I saw the text on the thumbnail and was ready to come in yelling "fight me!" I adore the Sunfish/Mola Mola! It's so unique, gentle and fascinating in my fish-nerd eyes. In the end, you did a good job describing a lot of the things I love about it. Thank you for the video!

When we walked into that area I came across a big window for a massive tank with no other windows on the walls at the far end and I couldn't see a "top" where the surface of the water would be. Just a big cavity completely filled with water. It was dark but lit just enough that you could see everything inside, but there was only 1 single entitiy in the entire tank. A massive Sunfish just looming through the dim blue tank all by itself just floating around as if life had no meaning. I don't know why, but it terrified me.

I have a friend who is a diver on undersea pipelines, spends his life in diving bells. One day, he was walking along the seabed in the zero visibility and collided with one of these sun fish resting on the sea bed. He said it was like walking into a wall that suddenly swam away!

I never thought I would see a sunfish dashcam in my life - it did not disappoint

This video ended up being very informative though, and I actually learned a lot about a fish I've always been really fascinated by.

This fish gave me a really great fish story . I had been fishing off a jetty . But was not catching anything . Was walking down the beach with my wife and found a big dead ocean sunfish on the sand . It was over 4 feet long . I felt bad for it . But it was dead . So I put my little hook in its mouth . Let out some line . And had my wife take my picture like I had caught it . At work I was telling the people I worked with . I caught a giant ocean sunfish . I was only using 20 pound test line . And it took me over 5 hours to bring it in . They said sure you did . That's a good one . I said here is a picture . They then got all excited saying wow thought you were joking that's unbelievable that thing huge . By the time my dày was done I had people coming to me saying I heard you caught a ocean sunfish on 20 pound test line . Can I see the picture . Wow unbelievable . Yes it was unbelievable . Because I really did not catch it . If that sunfish had been alive . I would have done my best to get it back in the water . And would not had given up till I did .

Things when I was much younger would drive me so full of anxiety. I was like a over tightened spring. Just ready to let go. But over time realized all kinds of things happen to everyone. And getting all pissed off over it. Does not help the situation. Just figure things out and move on. The past is done.

“aggressively farting out the gas” hah nice. i appreciate your super low key Zefrank-dom

Well, the ocean sunfish has turned out to be quite a Biologically clever fish. I admire them and I wish them all the best. The babies are adorable.

The level of disrespect towards sunfish in the first few minutes was perhaps the most hilarious thing I've ever witnessed (so far on the internet today)...

I went fishing out of bodega bay Ca about 5 yrs ago? I see these all the time but on this particular day the Capt (Rick) spotted a pair so turned toward them as the 65 ft boat eased up along them we got some phenomenal pictures. the 2 were each 8ft or larger and around 1000 lbs each. They have these very ethereal big blue eyes. With a single flush of their fins they effortlessly turned into a graceful slow dive. Pretty amazing creatures.

I spent most weekends of my childhood on my parents' game fishing boat off the coast of the North Island of New Zealand, and we'd fairly often see huge examples of these. My dad would tell me they were sunbathing.

Your dad was right 😊 sunbathing is one of their favorite pasttimes!! Sometimes their seagull friends will clean parasites off their bodies while they're at the surface, which does the sunfish a huge favor considering they can have over 40 different variants of parasites living on them at a given time.

Such a kind face, but so clearly scarred.

She scientifically roasted it for so long, I had to double check the channel name

I remember I had some little scuba diving game for the Wii called Endless Ocean that I played all the time as a kid. There was an option you could eventually unlock where you could go on night dives and I found a sunfish and I was absolutely terrified. I had no clue what it was, I thought it was some kind of floating shark head

I have been studying animals for years, and I didn't know about the sunfish. Thank you! extremely fun, and interesting. Kinda like a sloth of the ocean.

they're so silly i love them

Very educational and I like your candor! My 14 year old daughter encountered one at the beach on Long Island NY. The top fin splashed right next to her and the body brushed her friend. It spooked the heck out of them. The lifeguard told them they're harmless and they come to eat the jellyfish. It took a few years until she went back into the ocean after that.

They're harmless... what about the freaking jellyfish??

My first exposure to the ocean sunfish was Kine from Kirby's Dream Land 2. I thought it was a fictional fish species from the Kirby universe back then. I was really surprised when I found out that this oddly proportioned fish was real a few years later. It's a fascinating creature.

​@@gavinlew8273idk, but going on a sightseeing _in nature_ and not seeing anything and then *expecting a refund* seems so fking ignorant and entitled to me. If you want whimsical entertainment as a package deal, go to bloody Disneyland. Nature doesn't give a sh!t about our wants and desires, nor should it.

The creatures in this creation never cease to amaze me.

this video was amazing

Caught off guard by the unexpected Ricky Gervais-style roast at the beginning! The sunfish didn't just swim into the deep end, it swam into a comedy central roast session. Educational and entertaining! I'm subbing to the channel immediately.

Within the first two minutes, I was prepared to bust out my 8 page essay defense of sunfish, as they are my favorite animal ever, and encountering this sort of sunfish hate is extremely common. However, I am so pleased with the outcome!! Sunfish have long deserved some love, and if they did not exist, our ecosystem would be in shambles. My lifelong passion has been to protect these creatures ❤ thank you for bringing recognition to this beautiful fish!! (I am always dying to talk about these guys so if you want more cool sunfish facts you are more than welcome to let me know)

@Badger3 im so glad you asked!! sunfishies favorite snack are jellyfish :) considering global warming, many "dead zones" (or zones that don't grow much life besides plankton and other microorganisms) have become overrun with jellyfish, a creature that survives off of eating microorganisms and can thus survive in dead zones. Now you can see where sunfish come in :D they tame the jellyfish population! Without them, jellyfish could overrun these dead zones (and just multiply and multiply like crazy, they can be very dangerous too).

@plootyluvsturtle9843 a sunfish fact for you as well :D when sunfish are born, they have a working jaw and a row of top and bottom teeth. As mentioned in the video, they also have a tail fin when born. However, as they grow, not only does their tail grow back in on itself, but it's skin/muscles/jaw solidifies so much and their teeth just about disappear that they can no longer open and close their mouth. Which doesn't matter much for them, considering they just like to slurp up some jellyfish! I'm so happy you wanted to know more about sunfishies!!
