numbfish family
The numbfish family, scientifically known as Narcinidae, consists of various species of electric rays found in warm coastal waters. These fish are characterized by their flattened bodies and large pectoral fins, which give them a disc-like shape. They are often found resting on the ocean floor, camouflaging themselves among the sand and rocks.
Numbfish are unique for their ability to produce electric shocks, which they use for defense and to stun prey. They primarily feed on small fish and invertebrates. The family includes several species, such as the numbfish and torpedo rays, which are known for their distinctive appearance and behavior.
