    Abstract

    Fishes that generally occupy the upper strata and columnar open waters in the oceans are referred to as pelagic fishes and range from small fishes (clupeoids) to the large sized fishes (tuna, billfishes and the whale sharks). The pelagic region in the ocean generally refers to open water region extending from the upper surface area to the deep waters. Pelagic fishes differ from other species in that they live in a three-dimensional environment without any discrete boundaries that impede their horizontal and vertical movements through the water column.
