Barracudas known as sea pikes, mainly due to its elongated pike-like appearance (minus the teeth), are in fact not related to the Pike in any way. With prominent sharp-edged teeth that come in all different sizes and a pointy head, some species of the barracuda can grow up to 6 feet in length which adds to its intimidating nature. Barracuda are found all over the world primarily in tropical and sometimes in temperate waters often near coral reefs.

As predators, the barracuda are extremely successful fish, they have the ability to surprise their prey with short bursts of speed (up to 28 miles per hour (45 km/h) and are voracious feeders. Younger barracuda swim in large groups known as a battery, and once they reach full size, adult males break away and become solitary hunters.
