In 1869, the Suez Canal connected the Red Sea to the Mediterranean; over 150 years later, 120 fish species have crossed and scientists predict the next three

• More than 120 fish species have migrated from the Red Sea into the MediterraneanSince the Suez Canal opened more than 150 years ago, more than 120 fish species have migrated from the Red Sea into the Mediterranean.
• Researchers at Tel Aviv University have now created a statistical model that predicts which species are likely to make the move next, states a report by Phys Org.
• It also states that some of the model’s top candidate species included the stellate pufferfish (Arothron stellatus), the cinnabar goatfish (Parupeneus heptacantha) and the yellowspotted trevally (Turrum fulvoguttatum).
