Paedocypris Progenetica: Smallest Fish In The World

The world's smallest fish is Paedocypris progenetica, it is also the smallest vertebrate or backboned animal.  




It only measures 7.9mm long (0.31 inch). This species also belongs to the family of minnows and carps. But why is this so tiny? By looking at the image above, it’s so tiny that the fingerprints are so visible.

They are found in the swamps in the forests of Indonesia. Some are being found in Malaysia though. What’s more amazing is that they live in waters with an acidity of PH3. Imagine how acidic that is compared to the waters in the rivers and the sea.

The tiny, see-through Paedocypris fish have the appearance of a larvae and a reduced head skeleton, which leaves the brain unprotected by bone.

So, if you are planning to go on a fishing adventure with your family or friends but don't know where the best location would be or you don't know how much it will cost, then you should check this website. They know the market very well and they might also be able to help you with your budget for the trip and most important of all, they will make your fishing adventure an experience you will never forget.

Top 3 Golf Apps On Iphone

There are many golf  apps for the iPhone, so we cut the field down to the top five worthy of your consideration. iPhone apps involve some compromises compared to dedicated hand-held golfunits, but deliver plenty of functionality. 




Top 3 iPhone Golf Games

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 



Before the lurid revelations concerning Mr Woods’s private life surfaced, EA released a mighty fine iPhone-optimised version of its blockbuster console franchise, Tiger Woods PGA Tour.

Swiping down the on-screen meter sets the backswing, whilst swiping up establishes the forward swing. Any deviation from a straight swipe translates into hook or slice.




Let’s Golf! 



Whereas EA’s Tiger offering focuses on realism, licensing, and innovation, Gameloft’s Let’s Golf! tees up a bright, colourful, and fun fairway adventure.

By opting for the traditional tap-to-swing gauge, the French developer has ensured that anybody remotely familiar with a cabinet or console golfing title will be collecting eagles in no time.

63 holes can be mastered in the single-player Tournament mode over four courses, some of which are unlocked as your putting skills improve.




3D Mini Golf Challenge



This time last year, I went on one of those News of the World £1 caravan holidays. Suffice to say, it was overpriced.

Beaten into second place by the return journey, the next best part of the four-day break was a lunchtime trip to the town of Great Yarmouth and its brilliantly-inventive mini golf course.

Four unique themes and 100 zany, obstacle-ridden holes await all ye crazy enough to step up to the 3D Mini Golf tee.
