The blob fish to me still looks like an immature foetus. Blobfish are typically shorter than 30 cm. They live at depths like 1,200 m (3,900 ft) where the pressure is greater than that of sea level, which would likely make gas bladders inefficient. Instead, the flesh of the blobfish is primarily a gelatinous mass with a density slightly less than water; this allows the fish to float above the sea floor without expending energy on swimming. Its relative lack of muscle is not a disadvantage as it primarily swallows edible matter that floats in front of it such as deep-ocean crustaceans. They have been voted as the world most fish but I've seen quite a reasonable specie that looks normal.
Blobfish don't bite and they are ok in water. It has never been seen that blobfish was eaten because the moment it touches the earth, it turns to a blob.
In case you are thinking of keeping blobfish as pet, no one has ever caught it alive except you provide a tank with high pressure.
