Oh, Hai.

Everyone needs a lil' clownfish snorgling now and again, Veronica F. (Who took this at Fraggle Reef in L.A.)

Whoa! [Keanu Reeves voice] those whales actually accept scuba tank air into their mouths from a diver, and then blow bubbles with it! THAT'S KRAZEHPANNTS!
Wonton Destruction, nice find...
How tewtelly sweet that National Geographic has a quote from CuteOverload on their site. The quote is in reference to this guy below. Apparently, they liked what we called him... :) See for yourself.
Thanks to all of you who sent this one in. And a special thanks to you, Eddie McBlobbules [head tilt]
This is such a bummer, People. Apparently, the name-a-beluga whale contest over at Shedd aquarium will only accept Inuit/Indian names as contest entries. Last time I checked, neither "Humptyback Fishtybuns", nor "Mr. Splashy von Beluga Whalehouser", NOR "Smiley Q McWrinklesides" were of Inuit origin.
This is a total official rules McBummer, and I should have caught it. I'm sorry! Sure, we could all rally behind "Inungoark" or "Kappianartok", but that just doesn't have the same "Fishty" ring to it.
Alert reader Lindsay S. suggests "Suppiwok"—it means " Blows air with one's mouth" The closest Inuit approximation of "Mr. Pbbbffth-Pbbbffth"

OVERLOADERS! This is our chance to make a POSITIVE IMPACT on, like, society and stuff! Let's all get together and write-in a name for the new Shedd aquarium baby Beluga whale! Let's get consensus first... What name should we suggest?
Mr. McPorkersons? Colonel Belugersons??! Eddie!?!? Mobbers-Dicklebottom?
Mr. Pbbbffth-Pbbbffth??
I know you can come up with a name... THEN WE CAN ALL WRITE IT IN AND CONQUER THE WOOOOOORLD! [great find, Betsy W.]
People, we don't normally have feeshes on this site, so when we do, you KNOW it's a doozy. And that's where Eddie McBlobbules comes in. He's totally the inside-out-seahorse-in-a-ball-nerd of the deep. You can tell, he's all adjusting his glasses and writing your French Lit IV paper for you and stuff.
National Geographic has other deep-sea dwellers, but none who know as many theorems as Mr.M here. Thanks, Matthew C.!
Hey, anyone have time to animate those peepers? Come on!!!

Yes I do understand how you may feel constrained by the classifications currently available to you, sir or madam. However, this does not diminish my state of reptilianity. I am what I am. You see? Not all that is wet is fishy!

We are TURTLE. You will be assimilated.
Thanks to Lauri for the fine fotos!
Check out this new bebeh Beluga over at Chicago's Shedd Aquarium.
He's all taking his first bref, blowing air out his blowhole: ""PPPBBBBFFFFTTTHH!!!"
Then he's all snuggleh: [whale purring sounds]
Not to mention he's got room to grow with his foldy side chub:
Molly D. (and to all other Sender-Inners) way to go. And get your continued Calf Updates here.
With a turtle name like "Wesley", you pretty much HAVE to go with a macho costume on Halloween. I bet all the turtle ladies in the tank are like—"OMG, who's the hottie?" and whipping out their little Turtle Sidekicks to text him.
Reegahdless, Wesley has snapped up Best Turtle Costume on the Planet Ever as far as I'm concerned. Also, I think his nose has a hole in it. Just sayin'.
Gravel snorts to sender-inner Jennfer H., and toitle owners Craig and Melanie :^)
Beluuuugah!
Beluuuugah!
ppppbbbbfffftttt!!!

[repeat until roommate kicks you out]
Way to go, New Zealander Chels! (Oh, and SOMEONE is rokkin' Rule 16...)
Give it up—there are certain people—you know who you are—that help to keep us upright. Just like the lil' fins of this Baby Boxfish. [Flutter! Flutter!] That's right People, GIVE IT UP for those people who, on a daily basis, prop ya up and keep things going.
That means you, Natalie! (my fabulous co-worker who is *always* there...) Thank you.
Baby Boxfeeshe Bloooop! Thanks, PBase.com
Check out Albert "Goooooooaaaal!!!!" Einstein here, the smartest goldfish of all time. He remembers tricks for a whole TEN DAYS and has earned the much sought-after title of "fish with the largest repetoire of tricks" in the 2007 Guinness Book of World Records.
Bravo - o - o !!! [bubbles]
Albert: 'ehn!' [inching soccer ball toward goal]
Congratulations to Dean and son, for their brave and tireless teaching of Albert. Hooray!
