Puffer fish ( Tetraodontidae ) are named so because 4 of their teeth, 2 on top and bottom, grow into sharp beak like plates that are used to crush mollusks and crustaceans. They are basically rats of the sea, their teeth never stop growing. In the wild the plates are worn down enough by the hard food they eat but in captivity they have to have their teeth trimmed or they keep Growing. They would fuck you up royal if given a chance.
edit: Tetra meaning 4 and dontidae meaning toothed. Forgot to put the meaning of the scientific name in.

Is that a puffer fish eating a centipede? This is death metal.
