Archerfish Shoot Prey Out Of Trees
Archerfish are pretty small, coming in at only about four inches in length when fully grown. So while they may not be worth trying to catch, they would undoubtedly be amusing to watch as they feed on insects, including mosquitoes, which live out of the water.

However, how do they get those insects from the surface into their mouths? They first identify their prey, usually perched on an overhanging limb or other vegetation, and then shoot a jet of water to knock the insect down. They then enjoy a fresh meal, and you get to enjoy a world with fewer mosquitoes.
