Took me a surprisngly long time to figure out how simple it is to embed a youtube video
Look familiar?
The archerfish launches a bolt of water from its mouth (with surprising accuracy and power) to knock insects from overhanging shrubbery and branches.
Reminded me of the Gunfish!

haha aww actually it was the gunfish that reminded me of archerfish (although I grew up knowing them as water shooting fish) when I first saw them

Hahaha, that was I thought the first time I saw gunfish. I love this video and I watched it about 10 times, laughing like an idiot.
