Electropositive shark repellent Atlantic longlining vessels in 2008. As expected, teleosts (bony fish) are not repelled by the electropositive metal’s cation liberation in seawater. This is because teleosts lack the ampullae of Lorenzini. Teleost response was confirmed using captive Cobia ("Rachycentron canadum") and Pacific halibut ("Hippoglossus stenolepis"). In July 2008 swordfish ("Xiphias gladius") catch was reported on experimental hooks treated with electropositive metal. As with all shark repellents, 100% effectiveness will not be achieved with electropositive metals. The metals are particularly effective when the shark is relying on its electrosense. It is likely that electropositive metals are ineffective for deliberately stimulated (chummed) sharks,
Fourhorn poacher more commonly reach a TL of . The maximum recorded weight is , and the maximum recorded age is 7 years. The fourhorn poacher is preyed on by "Hippoglossus stenolepis". Its own diet consists of crustaceans including shrimp, crabs, isopods, amphipods, and ostracods, as well as bony fish, gastropods, and polychaetes. Fourhorn poacher The fourhorn poacher ("Hypsagonus quadricornis", also known as the four-horned sea-poacher) is a fish in the family Agonidae (poachers). It was described by Achille Valenciennes in 1829, originally under the genus "Aspidophorus". It is a marine, temperate water-dwelling fish which is known from the northern Pacific Ocean,
