A fish that wears a living mirror. Deep-sea creatures like hatchetfish and mirror-scaled herrings use guanine crystals to create one of the most perfect camouflage systems in nature. These scales bend light, erase shadows, and make the fish nearly invisible in the twilight zone of the ocean. Their delicate bodies, telescope-like eyes, and ancient lineage make them some of the strangest survivors in Earth’s history.
