An unusual fish known as “moon fish” was caught by fishermen from the isle of Skopelos. The fish with a strange appearance is found in warm climates, such as the Mediterranean. The fish can reach three meters and weigh as much as two tons. Oftentimes they are seen floating upside down and have the ability to make leaps out of water. Despite their size, they are not dangerous and feed mainly off mussels, plankton and jellyfish.
