Is it possible that a Moon fish can grow to 1200 kg ???

Well, there are many fish known as Moonfish.\n\nIf you're referring to the huge species Mola mola, also known as "sunfish" (the one in this picture http://www.mumm.ac.be/Assets/Pages/Strandings/sunfish.JPG ), the maximum recorded weight is 2,300 kg!!\n\nCheck the reference at Fishbase, a comprehensive and well documented fish information site:\nhttp://www.fishbase.org/Summary/SpeciesSummary.php?id=1732\n\nAnother large moonfish is Selene setapinnis (this one http://fishanatomy.net/webpages/fish/moonfish/Large/lookdown002.jpg ). \nFor this species, max recorded weight is 4,600 g. (species summary http://www.fishbase.org/Summary/SpeciesSummary.php?id=378 ).\n\nAnd yet another large sunfish is Lampris guttatus, also known as "opah" (the one here http://konadeepsea.com/charters/photos/opah.jpg )\nthe max. recorded weight is 270 kg\n(reference http://www.fishbase.org/Summary/SpeciesSummary.php?id=1072 )\n\nHope this helps. Let me know if it's none of the abovementioned species (I'll check back).\nYou can use the scientific names to look for more reliable information :-)

I think it would only be possible if there was also lots of water on the planet as well as good solar radiation being close to a star and carbon dioxide. Also it would be helpful if there was nitrogen in the soil since plants absorb nutrients from the soil. There would also need to be rainfall on the planet, but if there wasn't irrigation and watering by caretakers could be sufficient.\n\nAnd what about terraforming? Mars has an atmosphere and I beieve carbon dioxide. Could plants grow on Mars? We'd have to transport millions of gallons of water in our ships and keep the water from sinking deep into the planet. Why would we want to do that? It could cost a trillion dollars. The moon has no atmosphere I'm not sure it could be terraformed. Just a thought.

I found a website where you could purchase grass carp, however they will not ship to certain states.  DO NOT RELEASE THIS FISH INTO THE ENVIORNMENT IT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS PROBLEMS.  Having this fish will not be a good idea especially if you have other fish present in the pond.  Grass Carp eat over their daily limit and can destroy other fish habitats (Shelter, Food, Spawning areas), so watch how many fish you put in.  \n\nHere's the website: (To Order Grass Carp)\nhttp://www.dunnsfishfarm.com/\n\nGood Luck Hope It Works Out For You.\n\n-Tim G.

There would still be some tides, but they would be much, much more calm, as the sun only has about 10% (if not less) of the effect on the waters that the moon does.  Other than that, probably not too much.  No more moonlight.

Hi. The only reference to the mahi mahi (genus Coryphaena) skeleton that I could find is the following:\n\nPotthoff, T. (1980). Development and structure of the fins and fin supports of the dolphin fishes Coryphaena hippurus and C. equiselis (Coryphaenidae). Fishery Bulletin US 78, 277–312.\n\nUnfortunately I don't have this publication, but you might be able to find it at a scientific library.

The urogenital openning in most fish would be a little larger relative to a male of the same size.\n\nAlso female halibut grow up to 8 feet or more in length, males top out at arounf 4-4 1/2 feet.

Id like to know the same thing, not sure if its possible though. It sounds like too much weight for just 7 days. I mean 6kg is over 12 pounds.

Carcharodon Megalodon - What a fantastic creature! They had grown to 60 feet long or more and weighted more than 20 tons. Having a voracious appetite, they had to eat at least 2 percent of their body weight daily to maintain their existence. What happened to this fish that lasted 16 million years beginning in the early Mid-Miocene and lasted until the Pliocene/Pleistocene Period? It seems that no one single incident bu several long developing changes occurred that brought about the Megalodon’s extinction. \nEnvironmental changes were as important as any for the demise of this creature. By the late Miocene, about 10 million years ago, a period of major glaciation was under way. This was, it seems, the result of changes going back to the late Oligocene Period that began a slow cooling effect on the world. Changes like Africa colliding with Europe, cutting off the Tethyan Seaway to individual bodies of water represented today by the Mediterranean, Black, Caspian, and Aral seaways. \nAlso, the Indian subcontinent crashed into Asia, which formed the Himalayas. All these movements, over time, seriously altered global patterns of wind and rain which reduced the temperature at mid-latitudes by 27o Fahrenheit. This effect, in turn, brought about major glaciations at the Poles by the late Miocene. This glaciation resulted in the lowering of sea levels by about 650 feet. \nThrough lowered sea level and temperature, Megalodon lost large areas of suitable habitat. This is important because Megalodon lost much of its shallow nursery areas for its pups to grow and develop. Coincidentally, between 3.2 and 2.5 million years ago, the Isthmus of Panama rose from the sea floor, joining South America and North America. This new land bridge caused a great reduction of warm sea flow from the Pacific Ocean, thus helping to cool seas to less temperate waters favored by the Megalodon. \nPredators also seemed to work against the Megalodon. Whales, Orcas in particular, which had been a mainstay in the Megalodon’s diet, had changed. Not only had they grown tremendously, they had become better swimmers with improved musculature and tail structure. Their developments allowed them to move or migrate from local areas to becoming migratory - ranging into Arctic waters, putting them out of reach of the warm water loving Megalodons for large parts of the year. So, it seems, the Orcas became better swimmers while growing to almost the size of the sluggish Megalodon. \nThe mature Megalodon was thus denied a major food source. Also, the Megalodon pups, over time had lost their \nshallow water proteting nurseries and became a snack for the faster Orcas. It would seem, in conclusion, that the adults were too large to get enough to eat and the juveniles were too small not to be eaten by the predators. \n  \nReferences: \nHelm, Bill, Carcharadon Megalodon Extinction, elasmo.com. \nMartin, R. Aidan, Explorations in Shark Evolution, ReefQuest Centers for Shark \nResearch. \nStanley, Seven M., Extinctions, Johns Hopkins University, Scientific American Books, Inc\n\n\n\nThe Megalodon (Carcharodon megalodon, from ancient Greek, megas + don, literally "big tooth") was a giant prehistoric shark that probably lived between about 20 to 1.2 million years ago.\n\nThe Megalodon is known principally from fossil teeth and a few fossilized vertebral centra. Like other modern sharks the skeleton of Megalodon was of cartilage and not bone, resulting in the poor skeletal fossil record. However, Megalodon's large teeth have survived the ages. The teeth are in many ways similar to great white shark teeth and can measure over seven inches long (maximum slant length).\n\nRecent studies cited by Roesch (see external links below) suggest Megalodon was a "close relative" of the Great White. However, a growing number of researchers dispute this close Great White–Megalodon relationship, instead citing convergent evolution as the reason for the dental similarity. Nev

I would say no, since dogfish are a marine (salt water) 'fish' & catfish are fresh water fish

African elephantfishes (Family Mormyridae) grow with maximum length of 1.5 m.\n\nThe Australian or New Zealand elephant fish (Callorhinchus milii) species can grow up  to 1.2 m in length.♥

nah, that doesnt sound like a business that would flourish. but just a few minutes ago i answered a question to some guy looking for someone to assist him in building a fish farm in sri lanka...that would be something for you!!!

in the sea again... sorry... go buy another clown fish and eat him...that little fellow will just have to live a little longer... besides why would you want to eat a deformed fish?

It looks like a mutated mahi- mahi , but honestly I think it's fake- look at it, it looks plastic- the eyes are open but green and there isn't an actual eye ball. Don't you think if it was real form of ocean life that there would have been some sort of follow up info on the news? check google this is the only thing that comes up- this video. \nI think it's a hoax. \n\nThanks though- it's creepy I'll have night mares for a week.\n\nbut on another thought- There is this over all fascination with mermaids. yes, traditional pictures are pretty- and the though of having friendly,English speaking, magical allies is appealing- but I wonder if "mermaids" looked like this would they all end up in sold at exotic fish stores , or killed and packaged in tuna? ( " Now with mermaid meat!")

Lord yes i have a ultra light rig set up, mainly for bream fishing. bream is a pan fish which will get up to about 1 1/2 lbs. best eating fish there is . but to catch it one is like catching a shark. they are the best fighting fish there is.i have a ice fishing rod about 18inches long with a ultra light spinner on it. i carry it on my bike or truck. i see a decent place to fish i stop. i like it when the place is full of snakes because that is where you catch your big ones. wanna go with me lol.
