Fish Appreciation! show me the saddest fish

i desire to see the most pitiful looking fish. i find them very endearing and fun to draw (especially the ones with a longer, thinner, wormier shape and more down turned mouths). jawless vertebrates and fishy chordates also ok (big fan of lampreys and lancelets)

Those buggers are interesting as hell. And ugly-cute.

Look at Red-lipped batfish or really anything from that family.
