I want to know why it's called that!--76.93.42.50 (talk) 02:38, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

I saw one once, and I thought that the remarks it made, would better be described as cynical! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.83.121.172 (talk) 16:36, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Does anyone know how this fish got it name? What's so sarcastic about it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.241.174.129 (talk) 18:27, 29 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Probably to do with its feeding habits. The word sarcastic "comes from the ancient Greek σαρκάζω (sarkazo) meaning 'to tear flesh'" Drutt (talk) 12:02, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
 * What species does this animal even belong to, i cant seem to figure it out, im thinking maybe a blow fish but it doesn´t look anything like a blow fish or anything that would make it related to the blow fish 216.152.189.145 (talk) 23:15, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

Name of the article.
I believe this should be named Neoclinus blanchardi, specifying that it is also called Sarcastic Fringehead. There is actually a reliable source for that! --> RUL3R *flaming*vandalism 06:10, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

Unique body-type hard to understand through article. Better picture would help.
A photo of an alive, underwater sarcastic fringehead opening its mouth would be useful to see to really understand this fish better. Maybe a picture of it closed too. Its mouth is mentioned in the article, but a visual would enhance things a lot. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.231.47.155 (talk) 19:12, 19 May 2015 (UTC)

User:Hemiauchenia your most recent edit effectively reverts User:NorthTension's edit that had swapped in the picture of the living fish (full disclosure: I took this image). This talk thread discusses reasons for having the living fish. Open to discussion on which image makes more sense to use. Evanbaldonado (talk) 00:55, 15 October 2022 (UTC)


 * we already have an Image of the head of the living fish, so we had as well have the lead image show the entire body Hemiauchenia (talk) 05:35, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
