Description
These creatures are not only found in the abyssopelagic zone of Geb's Thymomenic ocean, but also far away from the continent's shoreline. And just like our deep sea fish, they have evolved bizarre shape in order to adapt to the darkness.

All life forms shown above are listed by their common names and classified as follows:
Phylum: Allobranchia
Class: Piscivultus

1. Grinner: common predators that lure other Pisces using the bioluminescence on their necks and breathing tube. Once close enough, the prey is savagely stabbed repeatedly by the Grinner's sharp tongue and then eaten. It is capable of swallowing prey bigger than itself.

2. Mu Worm Pisce: living near the ocean floor, the Mu Worm has only been seen and photographed once by deep sea diving exploration probes. Only half of its body shape is known. Its diet, along with pretty much everything else about it, is unknown.

3. Hair Razor: a purple filter feeder that is covered with irritating "hairs" which not only helps detect movement around it but also protects it from the probing tongues of most predators. It uses the lights under its eyes to communicate with other Hair Razors. They are slow swimmers and are possibly related to the Raisin Pisce.

4. Drake Pisce: the currently known top predator of Geb's abyss. It is named after its habit of luring prey using a beautiful light within its claw shaped radula. The prey is then snagged and consumed alive. Despite its 4 meter length, it still has a body shaped like a plant which is an unusual method of camouflage for deep sea pisces (although it may look like a dead fallen leaf from a plant found in the underwater forests). Although it's also possible that this is merely a means for juveniles to hide from other predators or older males of the same species (Drake Pisce are cannibals). But young Drake Pisces have yet to be seen in a higher ocean layer.

5. Purple Lip: a typical deep sea pisce which feeds entirely on detritus, that is both dead plants and animals that sink to the bottom. It has a large head with two rows of biolights, but also strangely large lips. It's possible that it is covered with sensors that help taste food before actually using its tongue, for safety purposes. The entire inside of their digestive system is blue.

6. Jail Jaw: being the largest pisce of the abyss with the biggest mouth, they are at first terrifying to look at. However the Jail Jaw is a filter feeder. The glowing "teeth" are actually extensions of the skulls, similar to Cranidons, that are use like a crib to protect the young from potential predators (this practice is also used by female crocodiles on Earth). The skull extensions glow to help the young find their way back into the mouth should they fall out. Jail Jaw eyes are larger than their brains.

7. Spear Worm Pisce: this is another fierce predator that lures prey using a large biolight, this time located on an appendage of the tail. Anything that comes within reach is then skewers with a large spike growing on the radula. They are hunted by Drake Pisce, but are remarkable fast and agile capable of quickly swimming out of harms way. The fastest burst of speed was clocked at 80 km/h. Some Spear Worm Pisces have been seen gathering with other members of their species and circling a predator to confuse it with their light show. They are related to the Alien Pisce but are much smaller.

8. Shaggy Pisce: a 2 meter long predator who uses the plant shaped barbels on its face as a lure rather than a disguise. It also smells like dead plant matter to lure prey, in addition to its biolights. It then snags them with a tongue that bind its target like a constrictor. They have small eyes under the folds of barbels that can barely be seen between the lights.

9. Autumn Leaf Pisce: these orange herbivorous pisces simply float in the water, sucking up water to feed on detritus. The lights are used by males to lure females. They have only three lights, each on an individual extension. No other currently known pisce have lights arranged in such a way. Autumn Leaf Pisce are preyed upon several of the pisces on this list.

10. Moonlight Pisce: This smaller relative of the Ganymede Pisce virtually lives the same lifestyle, drifting through he water sucking up whatever plankton can survive in the abyss. It's possible its red biolights are arranged in such a way to trick predators into thinking there are actually five of this animal swimming close to each other.
"This was the original design for the Ganymede Pisce."
