I am thinking of a fish that lives in the ocean (I think) and is flat and looks like a pancake, sort of. I can’t remember much more about it, but I think it was grey or blue-ish colored and rather large. I can’t find the name of it for the life of me. 
Does anybody know what I’m talking about? 
Flounder.
Ray.
Sand dollar.
Hungry Jack.
Hallibut
No.
No.
No.
No.
I thought of a flouder too at first, but that’s not it. And sand dollars are not fish. When I did my google search I kept getting lots of sites with flounders, too. The fish I’m thinking of is bigger and looks weirder, almost not like a fish but a dinosaur or something.
Maybe it’s a prehistoric fish that doesn’t exist anymore. I can’t remember where I saw the picture…but I can still see it in my mind and I don’t know what it’s called. It’s slightly frustrating.

None of those are it. 
I’m beginning to think I imagined it. le sigh
Would it be a Pancake Fish? Maybe even a Flat Fish? 
Flatfish are flat in a different way. Let me try to describe it. Ok, imagine that a flatfish is a coin. Now turn the coin on its side, magnify it a hundred times, and paint it blueish grey. That’s the animal I’m talking about. I’m beginning to think it wasn’t a fish at all but some kind of reptile or other extinct creature. I can see it in my head, and I see tuna and other recognizable fish with it in the same picture (the reason I believe it’s a saltwater fish).
It’s not these, but they are kind of pretty, don’t you think?
How about the mola-mola or sunfish?

THAT’S IT!
Thank you! 
Yes, discus are gorgeous. Difficult to keep alive (in my experience), but gorgeous.
“You got a pet hallibut?”
“Yes. I chose him out of thousands. I didn’t like the others, they were all too flat.”

That would be Eric the 'alibut. Which reminds me, have you renewed your cat license?

Great! Now I have this stupid song playing over and over in my head … well, at least half the song … in half the head …
