      I wouldn't advise keeping mudskippers, unless you are very experienced in keeping fish. Mudskippers are delicate and very sensitive to environmental conditions, and they have very different needs to other fish, due to being mostly terrestrial.
      It is quite possible to keep them, but they are best left for the experts.

      I had a buddy in elementary school that had all sorts or strange animals including snakes, spiders and fish. He had two Mud Skippers and one time while I was staying the night we went into the kitchen to get a snack late one night and found both of them on the floor lol. They had jumped out of their enclosure and were just chilling on his floor. I remember being startled but intrigued 🤣 good times. Ended up getting a tarantula from him and named him Max.

      You are correct of course!
      But i think you can also make a fair point that these creatures are a modern day analog to the fish that would become tetrapods, in such a way that the concept of "fish leaving the water and living on land" is not ridiculous because there are still fish today living in the amphibious state!
      But yes, these fish lack essential features that the pre-tetrapods had like proto-fingered digits, lungs, nose/nostrils, shoulder joints, and many other features.
      But i love animals like this because it contradicts the "implausibilities" that creationists try to argue about.
      "Really? Fish that walk and thrive on land?"
      "Why yes, in fact there are still fish that do this lol"
      Of course lungfish are more closely related to us and are actually in the clade of "lob-bones fish" just like we are!

    I love mudskippers, they're both silly and majestic in equal amounts. I never noticed how they stand on their pelvic fins while using their pectoral fins to move, it's like they really have four "legs", just not where you'd expect them to be.

    If we’d discovered these guys a few dozen million years into the future, they might have evolved legs and lungs, and we might’ve misidentified them as a type of basal amphibian. Our own ancestors might’ve lived a very similar lifestyle to these guys, pretty cool.

      Evolution is not real. And even if it was that's not even how it the theory works. Fish don't just simply "evolve" into amphibians like it's some kind of linear progression. If that were the case there wouldn't be any fish anymore because they would all be amphibians by now 😂

    • @lord125000
      @lord125000 Год назад +4

      They already have lungs actually
      Lungs evolved before swimming bladders
      Swimming bladders in fish are actually modified lungs
      In low oxygen water you might find fish go to the surface to swallow some air

    • @rac1equalsbestgame853
      @rac1equalsbestgame853 Год назад +4

      They do have lungs, AKA swim bladders
      Most fish use them for bouyancy control rather than breathing, but in fish that live brackish low oxigen water they often can do both
      Musskippers have a long way to go before being more than amphibious and our current tetrapods will certainly mirk them if they try but if all living tetrapods were to go extinct and muskippers survive somehow they might actually go all the way

    • @Tatusiek_1
      @Tatusiek_1 Год назад +4

      they’d need to have the necessary evolutionary pressure to become more like modern day amphibians. The issue is that the land niches are already filled so these guys may not ever take on the role our tetrapod ancestors did.

      In almost every species, males must compete for the most coveted thing in the world. The ability to reproduce and pass on their DNA. It is the purpose of all species. Females need to select very good males that can provide for her and her future offspring. 'Flirting' is basically the act of a male convincing a female that he is worthy of her allowing him to pass on his DNA. The longer the female gestation period, the more critical flirting is.

      @@Vi-pv3xi i guess the question was " if we came from fish ancestors why this isnt happening again and again?"
      The fact that the mudskipper and many other species developed separately abilities to live on land just shows how we really came from the water

      @@guifdcanalli It happened. Look at sea mammals like dolphin and whales. They are mammals, tetrapod, and come from fish ancestors but they evolved into the form of fish but that doesn't mean their relationship to fish is close. That is convergent evolution because the form of fish is their optimum design to live in the water.
