Yellow tangs, Zebrasoma flavescens, are reef fish found in the waters west of Hawaii and east of Japan in the Pacific Ocean. It is commonly found in shallow reefs, from 2–46 metres (6.6–150.9 ft) deep, in the Pacific Ocean, west of Hawaii and east of Japan. Hawaii is the most common place for aquarium harvesting, where up to 70% of the yellow tangs for the aquarium industry are sourced from. Zebrasoma flavescens can spawn in groups or in pairs. When in groups, females release eggs and males release sperm into open water where fertilization occurs. When in pairs, the male courts a female by changing colors and exhibiting a shimmering movement. The two fish then swim upward and simultaneously release their eggs or sperm into the water. Males may spawn with multiple females in one session, while females typically spawn only once a month. Other species of tangs have also been successfully bred in captivity. They can grow up to 8 inches (20 cm) in the wild, but are introduced to aquariums in the 2" to 4" range. Some specimens as large as 6" are occasionally available. Life expectancy in the wild can exceed 30 years.

Xiphias gladius also known as a sword fish. Swordfish, Xiphias gladius, are found worldwide in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans in tropical, temperate, and sometimes cold waters at depths between 200-600 m between 5-27°C. Males will mate with multiple females in one mating season, while females only mate approximately every two years. This results in walruses having the lowest reproduction rate of all the pinnipeds. After the female gives birth, around April or May, the calf makes its way from the land or ice into the water. Males will mate with multiple females in one mating season, while females only mate approximately every two years. This results in walruses having the lowest reproduction rate of all the pinnipeds. After the female gives birth, around April or May, the calf makes its way from the land or ice into the water. Swordfish are carnivores and eat other ocean fish such as bluefish, mackerel, hake, and herring as well as squid and octopus. They may eat smaller fish whole, but attack larger fish by slashing at them with their sharp bill and then eating them.

Odobenus rosmarus also know as a walrus  inhabit coastal areas from northeastern Canada to Greenland, while Pacific walruses inhabit the northern seas off Russia and Alaska, migrating seasonally from their southern range in the Bering Sea. Males will mate with multiple females in one mating season, while females only mate approximately every two years. This results in walruses having the lowest reproduction rate of all the pinnipeds. After the female gives birth, around April or May, the calf makes its way from the land or ice into the water. he maximum lifespan of a walrus is approximately 40 years. Walruses are carnivores, but they aren't ferocious hunters. The walrus' favorite food is shellfish. They dive underwater and use their whiskers to detect the shellfish in the dark waters of the ocean.

Chauliodus sloani, commonly called Sloane's viperfish. Viperfish, any of nine species of marine fishes belonging to the genus Chauliodus (order Stomiiformes). They are found in tropical regions of the major oceans. Viperfish are believed to be external spawners, meaning the female releases eggs into the water to be fertilized. Viperfish lay eggs year round, but the highest number of offspring are found between January and March. Viperfish are believed to live from 30 to 40 years in the wild, but in captivity they rarely live more than a few hours. Viperfish are carnivores with sharp teeth so long that they cannot fit inside the mouth. They curve backward alongside the fish's head.

Acanthuridae are the family of surgeonfishes, tangs, and unicornfishes. Tangs are found in coral reefs and inshore grassy or rocky areas at depths of 6-131 feet (2-40 m). In coral reefs, blue tangs live in holes and crevices where they are sheltered from predators while they sleep at night. Blue tangs reproduce through a behavior known as broadcast spawning, where several females release eggs and several males release sperm into the water column above the reef, all at the same time. A tang can live as long as 8 to20 years

also called the cigar shark this  shark occurs in warm, oceanic waters worldwide, particularly near islands, The cookiecutter shark is ovoviviparous, meaning it gives birth to live pups after they develop inside egg cases within the uterus of the mother. Each developing pup feeds off the yolk inside the egg case, remaining there until it is fully developed. Sharks can also be considered secondary consumers because larger sharks, whales, or fish often hunt them. Life span of cookiecutter shark is unknown.

Delphinus delphis Most dolphins are marine and live in the ocean or brackish waters along coastlines. Dolphins reproduce through internal fertilization, and females give birth to live young. Dolphins give birth to a single baby; the baby is usually born tail first (unlike most mammals) to minimize the risk of drowning.  The dolphins are a tertiary consumer in this food chain as well, since they eat secondary consumers: the tuna and mackerel .A dolphin's life span varies according to its environment and species. Although some bottlenose dolphins can reach 40 years of age, their average age is between 15 and 16 years

Boeseman's rainbowfish (Melanotaenia boesemani), also known as the Boesemani rainbowfish, is a species of fish in the family Melanotaeniidae .Rainbowfish are native to Australia, Papua New Guinea and parts of Indonesia, where they are found in streams, rivers, lakes and swamps. The number of eggs varies; sometimes a female will release less than five eggs and sometimes a batch turns out to contain over 30 eggs. ... Each egg is around 2 mm long and clear. Since rainbowfish are known to eat their own eggs, it is safest to move the eggs to a separate fry rearing container. Most will only live between five to eight years in the home aquarium, though there are reports of some living as long as 12 years. Boeseman's rainbowfish are an active and peaceful fish, and should be kept in an aquarium where they are provided with enough room to swim.

Quillback carpsuckers are a long-lived species, with fish as old as 11 years found in ... An average of 64,000 eggs are produced by six year old-female quillbacks ... thousand eggs per breeding season to ensure the survival of some offspring. Mortality is high among the eggs, fry and young fish because they provide food for predatory fish who are grazing or browsing for food. Among adult quillback carpsuckers mortality is 60 to 70 percent annually. Quillback carpsuckers prefer to feed on the bottoms of lakes, rivers and streams. Specifically they prefer clear, bottom water. They seek aquatic insect larvae and other small organisms such as mollusks, fingernail clams and aquatic vegetation.

Pinnipeds, commonly known as seals, are a widely distributed and diverse clade of carnivorous, fin-footed, semiaquatic marine mammals. Seals are found along most coasts and cold waters, but a majority of them live in the Arctic and Antarctic waters.  Seals mate on land about 6 weeks after seal pups are born. The fertilized egg starts to divide, then stops for a few weeks, then continues to develop. This makes the pregnancy last longer so that pups are born when plenty of food is available. Both the Grey and Common seal have been known to live more than 30 years. One female Grey seal around the Shetland Isles in Scotland was known to be 46 years old. However, many seals do die at sea through pollution, parasitic diseases and being caught up in fishing nets.

A jelly fish is also known as a Scyphozoa. Jellyfish can be found in all ocean waters. Jellyfish reproduce both sexually and asexually. One generation (the medusa) reproduces sexually and the next generation (the polyp) reproduces asexually. Some jellyfish can lay as many as 45,000 eggs in a single night.  Most jellyfish live less than one year. The jellyfish is a carnivorous animal and despite its appearance, the jellyfish is a remarkably efficient predator. Jellyfish eat many different types of things, such as small plants (phytoplankton), copepods (crustacean zooplankton), fish eggs and other small fish called larvae; they also eat the planktonic eggs and young stages (also called larvae) of many different kinds of marine animals. Some jellyfish even eat other jellyfish!

A Isopod is also known as a isopoda. The Isopod is also a is a cartilaginous fish. About half of the known species of isopods live in the ocean. Males climb on the backs of females to mate. The males curl the abdomen around so that the underside comes into contact with hers. Males use their pleopods to transfer the sperm to the genital openings of the females. After mating the female releases a dozen to several hundred eggs into the marsupium. Aquatic isopods are scavengers, omnivores, and herbivores. Mouthparts are for chewing. Common foods include decaying plant material, such as dead leaves, and other refuse. They probably also eat the algae and other tiny organisms that coat submerged rocks, logs, and so on.

They inhabit not only the marine waters of western Atlantic Ocean, Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, but can also be found in the Red sea and the Persian Gulf. Strong lura marina is oviparous, and the demersal eggs may be found attached to submerged plants and other suitable surfaces by long filamentous tendrils on the egg surfaces. Needlefish are adept jumpers, carnivorous in habit, and distinguished by long, slender jaws equipped with sharp teeth.
The needlefish forages for shrimp and small fish such as killifishes and silversides. A needlefish has a perfectly streamlined body, which allows the fish to achieve high swimming velocities. They can have a lifespan of up to 8 years and some species are capable of growing more than 1 meter in length.

Trichechus is a Manatee. Manatees can be found in shallow, slow-moving rivers, estuaries, saltwater bays, canals, and coastal areas. On average, one calf is born every two to five years and twins are rare. Intervals between births range from two to five years. Manatees do not form permanent pair bonds like some animal species. During breeding, a single female, or cow, will be followed by a group of a dozen or more males or bulls, forming a mating herd. Manatee are mostly herbivorous, however small fish and invertebrates can sometimes be ingested along with a manatee's normal vegetation diet. The life expectancy of a manatee is 60 or more years

A killer whale is also known as SpeciesOrcinus orcakiller whale.
Killer whales are found in all oceans. While they are most abundant in colder waters like Antarctica, Norway, and Alaska, they are also found in tropical and subtropical waters. Killer whales are  tertiary consumers. Killer whales hunt seals and sea lions.

Adult killer whales give birth to a single baby (only once were twins recorded) about every 3-10 years. They start breeding at about 14-15 years of age (the youngest known was only 11). Gestation is 16-17 months. Babies nurse for about one year.
When factored in at birth, the average life expectancy of southern and northern resident killer whales is about 29 years for females and 17 years for males.

Tetraodontidae AKA a Puffer fish. There are more than 120 species of pufferfish worldwide. Most are found in tropical and subtropical ocean waters, but some species live in brackish and even fresh water. The male puffer fish guides the female puffer fish towards the shore where she releases between 3 and 7 eggs. Pufferfish mating involves females laying eggs in the fine sediments in the center of the circles, and then the males fertilizing them externally. Puffer fish are omnivorous animals and eat a variety and plants and animals. Puffer fish mainly feed on the algae that grows on the rocks and coral and also the invertebrates that inhabit these areas. Average lifespan of the puffer fish is around 10 years.

The scientific name Octopoda is also known as a octopus. Octopuses are found in every ocean of the world. The giant Pacific octopus can have over 50,000 babies at one time, and spends months guarding those eggs. To mate, a male will insert his hectocotylus into the female's mantle cavity and deposit spermatophores (sperm packets).  Octopuses are carnivores, which means they eat meat. Meals can include clams, shrimp, lobsters, fish, sharks and even birds. Octopuses have a relatively short life expectancy; some species live for as little as six months. The giant Pacific octopus, one of the two largest species of octopus, may live for as much as five years.
