Wow. This is epic internet!
lololo
It has a South Park mouth
The eyes would suggest it’s a predator.
Or just that it needs to focus on from of itself like filter crabs, or that it needs to see through things like kelp forests or hole enterances.
Given it’s size and the extreme binocular vision, it’s unlikely to have any ambush predators.
I looked it up, it has bony plates all over it’s body and likely a lateral line, so seeing predators directly may have been less necessary. It was also a suction feeder, so likely an active predator of much smaller things. It may have needed good forward vision because it’s maneuverability was poor.
That’s what I thought! I’m too stupid to make anything more of it here for this community though
Prototype fish
This fish foresaw that evolution would lead to celebrity news, Return To Office mandates, and oversized utes, and decided it was happy precisely where it was.
“When we shine ze light on it…”
Zeeky booky doog
Preschool teacher: draw a happy fish Preschool student: <the above picture>
I would love to take one from its natural environment and force it to live in a small aquarium.
proto whale has an emoji face
I don’t know why but this creature is funny, scary and ridiculous all at once
Oh. We evolved from a googley eyed water hamhock.
So… Millions of years ago, before Pikachu was surprised, we had this fish occupying its niche?
the source of all pikachu faces.
No, millions of years ago we were this fish
Technically this is the ship of theseus so are we really this fish?
It depends whether you subscribe to the belief of reincarnation. There’s always a possibility that you’re actually reincarnated from an alien in Andromeda somewhere and the reason why you can’t remember anything is because the memory format of the alien physiology is not compatible with human brain.

Look! The Lobotomite has returned!
It’s funny when looked sideways, but when looked from the front it’s two distortion filters away from analog horror.
Horror already without filters. I’m going to see that thing in my nightmares, fuckin hell.
It is cute, isn’t it?
That is such a shit fish. I love it.
