What are marine fish?

Marine fish are species of fish that live primarily in saltwater environments, such as oceans and seas. They play important roles in marine ecosystems, serving as both predators and prey. Marine fish can range from small species like sardines and anchovies to larger ones like tuna and sharks. Many are important for commercial and recreational fishing, as well as for aquarium enthusiasts. Their adaptations allow them to survive in the unique conditions of saltwater habitats.
