A recent study has claimed that an almost 3-ton sunfish, found close to a Portuguese island, has broken the previous record for weight. The sunfish, known as Mola alexandrini or the gigantic sunfish, was discovered on the shores of Faial Island in the Azores archipelago.The new paper, released on October 11 in the Journal of Fish Biology, describes the results of the researchers' dissection of the enormous sunfish. The fish measures 3.5 m in length and 3.6 m in height, and it is 2,744 kg in weight. In addition, the scientists extracted a sample of the sunfish's DNA and examined the contents of its stomach.The previous record for heaviest sunfish was held by a fish caught in Japan in 1996 and weighed roughly 2,300 kg. Sunfish have rounded bodies and frequently bask in the sunlight at the ocean's surface, which, according to scientists, is how they warm up after spending extended periods diving into chilly, dark waters in search of food.

The sun was just peeking over the horizon, casting a pink and orange glow over the sea. On the small island of Faial, in the Azores archipelago, something was stirring. A huge sunfish, known as a Mola alexandrini, or Thai fish, had beached itself overnight. Measuring 3.5 meters in length and 3.6 meters in height, this gigantic creature weighed in at an astonishing 2,744 kilograms!The researchers who discovered the fish were quick to perform a dissection, and extracted a sample of its DNA. They also examined the contents of its stomach—an interesting task given the size of this sunfish! Their findings were published in the Journal of Fish Biology on October 11th.According to scientists, sunfish often bask in the sunlight at the ocean’s surface in order to warm up after spending extended periods diving into chilly, dark waters in search of food. This particular sunfish was caught in Japan back in 1996 and weighed roughly 2,300 kilograms—breaking the previous record by almost half a ton!As word spreads of this gigantic catch, people are flocking to Faial Island to get a glimpse of this record-breaking fish. It’s truly a sight to behold! After watching, please visit Three Tea Trees on YouTube and subscribe to see the newest video. We truly thank you.
