World's Smallest Fish



The Paedocypris progenetica is officially the world's smallest fish at only 7.9mm long, that is less than 1/3 of an inch!
Not only is in the smallest fish in the world, but it is also that smallest vertebrate or back boned animal in the entire world!
It was discovered in the swamps on the Indonesian island of Sumatra in water that has a PH level of 3. This is about 100 times more acidic than regular rainwater.
