    Is that the fish where the male latches on to the female and then is slowly, I think, absorbed until only the testicles remain? The females can end up swimming round with a whole bunch of different balls on them and can choose which to fertilise with.

    Anglerfish lengths can vary from 2–18 cm (1–7 in), with a few species larger than 100 cm (39 in).[36] The largest members are the European monkfish Lophius piscatorius (200 cm (6.6 ft) SL, 57.7 kilograms (127 lb)), the deep-sea warty anglerfish Ceratias holboelli (120 cm (3.9 ft) TL), the giant frogfish Antennarius commerson (45 cm (1.48 ft) TL), and the giant triangular batfish Malthopsis gigas (13.6 cm (0.45 ft)).[37][38][39][40]

    Now it changed from biting off your face to chopping the tip of your dick. I don’t know what to fear more.
