Cubiceps Caeruleus
''Cubiceps caeruleus'', the blue fathead or cubehead, is a species of driftfish native to the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. It is a pelagic fish that can be found at depths of from . It mostly feeds on salp A salp (plural salps, also known colloquially as “sea grape”) or salpa (plural salpae or salpas) is a barrel-shaped, planktic tunicate. It moves by contracting, thereby pumping water through its gelatinous body, one of the most efficient ...s. This species can reach a length of TL.

Driftfish
Nomeidae, the driftfishes, are a family of percomorph fishes found in tropical and subtropical waters throughout the world. The family includes about 16 species. The largest species, such as the Cape fathead, ''Cubiceps capensis'', reach 1 m in length. Several species are found in association with siphonophores (which are colonies of tiny individual animals that have specialised functions which resemble jellyfish) such as the Portuguese man o' war; the man-of-war fish, ''Nomeus gronovii'', is known to eat its tentacles and gonads, as well as feeding on other jellyfishes. Other species of driftfishes are associated with the floating seaweed ''Sargassum''. The Cape fathead feeds mainly on salps. Some species of ''Cubiceps'' are occasionally caught on pelagic longlines set for swordfish.
