When alive, they are pink with a silver tint, but turn silver only after death.[5] This Antarctic marine fish is one of several in the region that produce antifreeze glycopeptides as an adaptation against the extreme cold of Antarctic waters.[6] EcologyThe postlarvae, {{convert|8|–|17|mm|in|abbr=on}} in size, feed on eggs of calanoids (Calanoida), sea snails Limacina and tintinnids (Tintinnida).[7] Juveniles feeds on copepods (Copepoda), mostly on Oncaea curvata.[7] Antarctic silverfish are an important prey species for high trophic animals, such as the Adelie penguin and the Weddell seal.
