Rattails, or macrourids, are common throughout the world’s ocean. Big blue eyes give the rattail an edge at finding food in deep, dark waters. Their keen eyesight reveals prey, like fishes and squid, darting just above the seafloor.

Effortlessly working the water column 😶🌫️
Fishes in the family Macrouridae, also known as rattails, can glimpse even the faintest flickers of bioluminescence—the “living light” produced by deep-sea animals. Their keen eyesight reveals prey darting in the waters above the seafloor.

We had to do it 😁
As we filmed this deep-sea octopus, Graneledone, gracefully walking along the seafloor, a rattail fish came in to hog the shot. Rattails, also known as grenadiers, are very curious and will come to investigate any disturbance on or around the seafloor, like an ROV.

The #DeepWonders team, led by @divaamon.bsky.social, encountered this curious grenadier fr the genus Coryphaenoides at 1,900m — 2.3 times as deep as the height of the world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai. Also known as rattails, most are smaller; this individual was nearly 1m long.

Rattail fishes swim alongside the ROV at Axial Seamount. Rattails are highly efficient swimmers attracted to any disturbance, so they are one of the most commonly seen fish during deep-sea operations. But we never get tired of watching them! 🌊🚢🧪

I'd actually contend that the bibby/nightmare dichotomy is more about benthic/pelagic than strict depth zonation. Rattails, Chaunacops, cuthroat eels are all bibbies and occur at bathyal depths.
