Answer 2

Scientists have discovered a fish living in forest swamps on the Indonesian island of Sumatra that is only 7.9mm long.

The species of fish belongs to the carp family and is called Paedocypris progenetica . It is the world's smallest vertebrate or backboned animal.

Answer 3

I don't know if its the smallest fish but heres a fact about the smallest catfish ever.It grows up to a size of about 2.5mm and is called the candiru.

The Candiru is the only known parsite that is a vertebrate.In its natural habitat in the amazons, it attaches itself inside the gills of its fish victims and suck the blood from there.Giving it the nickname ''vampire fish''

The worst thing about this fish is that it is also attracted to the scent of urine and blood.So, with that said, many unlucky swimmers in the amazons who urinated while in the water, had the Candiru swim up their anus, and all other holes near it.The only way to remove the Candiru would be through surgery in most cases.

So if you wanna find it, check the amazons but i doubt you would want to own one unless you got a boyfriend who cheated on you or something.

Answer 4

I'm pretty sure the smallest fish in the world is the Dwarf Puffer.

They are actually pretty common in stores.

I see them alot at Nature.
