Blobfish are typically shorter than . They live at depths between , where the pressure is 60 to 120 times greater than that at sea level, which would likely make gas bladders inefficient for maintaining buoyancy.
Blobfish tend to be smaller in length compared to other species. They reside at depths ranging from , experiencing pressures that are 60 to 120 times higher than those at the surface, conditions that probably render gas bladders ineffective for keeping them afloat.
