Is a blob fish an invasive species?

No, the blobfish (Psychrolutes marcidus) is not considered an invasive species. It is a deep-sea fish native to the waters off the coasts of Australia and New Zealand. Blobfish are adapted to their specific environment and are not known to disrupt local ecosystems or outcompete native species. Instead, they are often regarded as a vulnerable species due to habitat degradation and the impacts of deep-sea fishing.
