Electric fish. Among the electric fishes are electric eels, knifefish capable of generating an electric field, both at low voltage for electrolocation and at high voltage to stun their prey. An electric fish is any fish that can generate electric fields. Most electric fish are also electroreceptive, meaning that they can sense electric fields.
The Mormyridae, sometimes called "elephantfish" (more properly freshwater elephantfish), are a superfamily of weakly electric fish in the order Osteoglossiformes native to Africa. It is by far the largest family in the order, with around 200 species.
The elephantnose fish is a weakly electric fish which generates an electric field with its electric organ and then processes the returns from its electroreceptors to locate nearby objects. [4] Further information: Electroreception
They are unique among electric fish in not possessing electroreceptors, meaning that they do not use an electric sense to locate prey. Stargazer's paired electric organs are aligned vertically inside the head, behind the eyes. Uniquely, they are used only for hunting or defence, as the fish does not electrolocate.
The electric rays are a group of rays, flattened cartilaginous fish with enlarged pectoral fins, composing the order Torpediniformes / tɔːrˈpɛdɪnɪfɔːrmiːz /. They are known for being capable of producing an electric discharge, ranging from 8 to 220 volts, depending on species, used to stun prey and for defense. [2]
A robot fish is a type of bionic robot that has the shape and locomotion of a living fish. Most robot fish are designed to emulate living fish which use body-caudal fin (BCF) propulsion, and can be divided into three categories: single joint (SJ), multi-joint (MJ) and smart material-based "soft-body" design.
The common torpedo (Torpedo torpedo), also known as ocellate torpedo or eyed electric ray, is a species of electric ray in the family Torpedinidae. It is found in the Mediterranean Sea and the eastern Atlantic Ocean from the Bay of Biscay to Angola, and is a benthic fish typically encountered over soft substrates in fairly

This category is for the biology of electric fishes, and contains subcategories for strongly and weakly electric fish. Individual fish taxa should therefore not be listed here, but should be in one or both of the subcategories.
Strongly electric fish are electric fishes whose electric discharges are strong enough to be used in attack and/or defense.
