Sunfish

I think the sunfish looks the way it does because of it's surroundings and how it lives in the environment. Their physical features highly depend on how they are living and the amount of sunlight they receive. Since they like to sunbathe, this can highly affect how their physical features are evolving. New species have appeared because of abnormal climate changes and different environmental factors. These may include how much they swim or sunbathe (In the case of the Sunfish). These new species have to adapt to the environment, creating new traits and losing old ones. They must figure out a way to survive in the environment so they don't die off quickly. I believe these sunfishes will have a long lifespan if they keep adapting to the environment and getting the survival they need.
