Some sunfish have been seen floating on their sides at the top of the sea (as above) in search of the heat from the summer sun.

| Ocean sunfish frequent Nova Scotia
in search of jellyfish and other species. These stubby, odd looking fish
can grow to a ton or more in weight. The sun fish has an almost circular,
flattened body. It swims by flapping its long pectoral and dorsal fins;
the caudal fin is used as a rudder (for steering).
