These species of fish can be seen roaming the abyss around Rapture. One can be seen before being eaten by a shark in BioShock 2 when roaming outside of Rapture. Many seem to live in the trench where Fontaine's Department Store now rests. Also, in the multiplayer map Point Prometheus, a poster suggests an extremely large angler fish roams outside Rapture (it is unknown if this is real or an angler fish affected by ADAM). An exhibit for a very large one can be seen in the Proving Grounds.
