Japanese spider crabs are absolutely ridiculously huge crabs that live on the sea floor around Taiwan and Japan. It has the largest leg span of any arthropod, with its leg span reaching up 12 feet from claw to claw. It's an omnivore, both scraping algae off the sea floor and cracking open mollusk shells. During mating, the female crabs can carry and release up to 1.5 MILLION eggs. Obviously a large portion of these eggs get eaten. An interesting thing about the Japanese spider crab is that it can actually camoflague itself with worm tubes and sponges. Literally the crab will just rip it off of whatever rock the sponge/worm tube was on and attach it to the crabs back, and the crab will secrete adhesives and stuff and the sponge will practically get glued to the crabs back, and it'll still be able to live and colonize on the crab's back.

The angler siphonophore is a type of, well, siphonophore, which is a close relative of the jellyfish that has a large fragile body that is split up into multiple specialized sections. It lives in the deep midwater of the Twilight zone, as the Twilight zone doesn't have any debris or anything that would tear its fragile body. The angler siphonophore is unique from other siphonophores as it has glowing red lures and stinging tentacles to lure and eat fish. Honestly, I don't have a specific interesting thing about this creature because literally everything about it is interesting. It's a big, transparent, delicate, worm-looking thing with stinging tentacles and lures to eat fish and lives in the middle of the abyss. What gets stranger and more fascinating than that?

The Atlantic blue marlin is a migratory predatory fish that (as its name suggests) lives in the Atlantic Ocean (big shocker). Female marlins are about 4 times as large as the males, with the largest ones weighing over 1,000 pounds. Marlin have long, sharp pointed bills to stab their prey, and are able to eat just about anything from squid to even other species of marlin. A thing that I find interesting is that the Atlantic blue marlin (like other species of billfish) are actually able to change color due to chromatophores (color-changing skin cells) on their scales.
