Animal living both on land and in water?

In the UK, two different kinds of fish live in fish bowls, each with a different number of individual fish attached to it. The two types are Daphnia and Chlamydophora. Daphnia are the water fish (Balaenoptera) , and Chlamydophora are the land fish (Acanthopoda) .

The number each fish has is the same for both types and it's therefore not necessary to ask the question of "how many fish can I have in a fish bowl?
" The only significant difference in size between different types is the length of their tail scales, which is also what makes them the "tongue" type and the "nose" type.

Daphnia can live on land, on open water, in ponds and rivers and are often considered to be the best "cannibal" fish (meaning that they can live without help from predators) as some other land- dwelling fish species, like Daphnia piscivorans (Chlamydophores) , can live off the food the Daphnia eats and do not need to share the pond with other fish.

However, Daphnia are also predators themselves– they consume a large number of small fish or even smaller aquatic invertebrates as food as part of their food- sucking cycle. Chlamydophora are the land- dwelling fish and live in ponds, rivers and lakes.

In lakes and ponds, large and small fish (mostly cichlids) can often be seen hanging around the edges of the water (or they can be spotted if the water is slightly turbid and the fish can be seen swimming towards the surface) .

Chlamydophora are herbivores and eat small aquatic creatures (usually snails and fish) , which are mainly algae (not algae- like bacteria) . The food they consume has a higher water temperature so they have to be in the water for long periods of time to get enough energy to eat all this algae.

Daphnia can live anywhere but the main home for these fish is in ponds, rivers and lakes. As their name suggests, they are often caught using a small hook, net or net- bait. The largest catch is around 3.

28kg, though sometimes larger, with the largest known ever being 10. 65kg. In a traditional fish bowl, there are two types of Daphnia– the "tongue" type and the "nose" type. These are typically a single fish.

It is a common misconception that the "nose" fish has the large, curved bill and a hook that goes deep into the fish. The "tongue" type is the size of a small child and will generally go into the fish bowl with its mouth open.

The bottom of the fish bowl is not made of clay or coral but instead the fish is held in its tail or bill, then they are hooked using a small piece of fishing line and the fish is held out of the pool in the open water for a period of time.

The hook is passed slowly and carefully, in a line- style movement, across the bottom of the water. The "tongue" fish would be an ideal candidate for the "water manipulator" fish. The largest Daphnia found worldwide is 16.

58kg found in a pond in Sweden. The following are the largest known fish (for size) in the world: Water Fish– size (kg) Daphnia– size (kg) Balaenoptera- a small round- bodied fish– the smallest fish
