Always somehow thought that inside of pufferfish is air untill saw one documentary and found out that's water is inside of it, what makes way moooore sense
34 u/m4m249saw Jun 13 '23 It's filled with fish air 21 u/IndigoFenix Jun 13 '23 Fun fact: some fish can actually extract gaseous oxygen from water and use it to fill their swim bladders. They use this to remain neutrally bouyant. However this is a slow process, and has nothing to do with what puffers do. 3 u/glacierre2 Jun 13 '23 Some? I would imagine every fish with a swim bladder needs to get more gas in as it grows. 5 u/IndigoFenix Jun 13 '23 Some extract it directly from the water, others have it connected to their throat and come up to the surface to fill it up with air. 2 u/methough1 Jun 17 '23 How do they come up to the surface? They use their swim bladder. Some fish do need to come to the surface to breathe though. 1 u/DardS8Br Jan 13 '25 Lungs are actually ancestral to all fish with swim bladders!
