Thre is a fish that swims vertically, I saw it on the telly , they swim in schools and it is so they can be camouflaged in the grasses. It was amazing as when they go into a grass field they literally disappear. from view. It was a documentary about camouflage and protection mechanisms.

Answer 5

The sea horse is one fish that swims upright. Another is the shrimp fish of the Indian Ocean, which congregates in schools of several individuals and swims vertically. A catfish indigenous to the Nile and other African rivers also swims in the vertical posture. Many kinds of midwater deepsea fishes swim or rest vertically.
