Paddleboarders have seen giant sunfish swimming around. The exact length of the fish is not known, but the length of the paddleboard is 14 feet. Therefore, according to the estimates made from the pictures, the sunfish is likely to be 9 to 10 feet long.
Female sunfish can lay up to 300 million (300 million) eggs at a time. This is the largest of any known vertebrate species. Sunfish are known for their large bright eyes, massive head and long fins, which are sometimes mistaken for sharks when floating on the surface of the water.
According to the report of Live Science, the length of that fish caught in October was 10.5 feet and weight was 2000 kg. Rich German, one of the paddleboarders who saw the fish at Laguna Beach, said the gray sunfish seen on December 2 was very calm and wonderful. German and his friend Matt Wheaton were hoping to see dolphins on the beach, but when they reached 600 feet from Main Beach, they saw sunfish.
Due to the fondness of staying on the surface for a long time to take a bath in the sun, this fish is called Sunfish. By the way, it is also called Common Mola and Mola-Mola. Its color is brown, golden, white and gray.
Not every big fish of the sea can make this fish its prey, but sea line, killer whale and shark make it their diet. A large number of small children are also included in the herd of this fish and thus their number becomes very high. For this reason this group is called Juveniles.
Spots are also visible on the body of many sunfish, due to which it sometimes looks like a stone. It is found more in the Pacific Ocean and Atlantic Ocean, but after hunting it, it is sent more to countries like Japan, Korea etc.
It makes its diet on fish like jellyfish, squid etc. Nutrients are less in its diet, due to which it needs more food.
