 Tuna
 Tuna are salt water fish from the
family Scombridae, mostly in the
genus Thunnus. Tuna are fast
swimmers, and some species are
capable of speeds of 70 km/h. Unlike
most fish, which have white flesh, the
muscle tissue of tuna ranges from
pink to dark red. The red coloration
derives from myoglobin, an oxygen-
binding molecule, which tuna express
in quantities far higher than most
other fish. Some larger tuna species,
such as bluefin tuna, display some
warm-blooded adaptations, and can
raise their body temperatures above
water temperatures by means of
muscular activity. This enables them
to survive in cooler waters and to
inhabit a wider range of ocean
environments than other types of fish.
 Whale shark
 The whale shark, Rhincodon typus, is a
slow-moving filter feeding shark, the largest
living fish species. The largest confirmed
individual was 12.65 metres (41.50 ft) in
length. The heaviest weighed more than
36 tonnes (79,000 lb), but unconfirmed
claims report considerably larger whale
sharks. This distinctively-marked fish is the
only member of its genus Rhincodon and its
family, Rhincodontidae (called Rhinodontes
before 1984), which belongs to the subclass
Elasmobranches in the class Chondrichthyes
. The shark is found in tropical and warm
oceans, lives in the open sea with a lifespan
of about 70 years.[3] The species originated
about 60 million years ago. Although whale
sharks have very large mouths, they feed
mainly, though not exclusively, on plankton
, microscopic plants and animals, although
the BBC program Planet Earth filmed a
whale shark feeding on a school of small
fish.[4]
 Stingray
 The flattened bodies of stingrays allow
them to effectively conceal themselves
in their environment. Stingrays do
this by agitating the sand and hiding
beneath it. Because their eyes are on
top of their bodies and their mouths
on the undersides, stingrays cannot
see their prey; instead, they use smell
and electro-receptors (ampullae of
Lorenzini) similar to those of sharks.
Stingrays feed primarily on molluscs,
crustaceans, and occasionally on small
fish. Some stingrays' mouths contain
two powerful, shell-crushing plates,
while other species only have sucking
mouthparts. Stingrays settle on the
bottom while feeding, often leaving
only their eyes and tail visible.
Coral reefs are favorite feeding
grounds and are usually shared with
sharks during high tide.
