Optical Illusion: Only a real Aquaman can spot the fish hiding among the sharks

According to many studies, optical illusions stimulate the parts of your brain that deal with patterns, memory, and spatial awareness. By making your visual brain work harder, these puzzles improve your ability to focus, block out distractions, and solve complicated issues faster.

For this reason, a lot of people call these optical illusion puzzles "informal IQ tests." They offer information about how keen your cognitive abilities are, even though they don't give you a score.

The real fun starts now. The cartoon sharks in the next image all have goofy smiles on their faces. One small fish sticks out among others and doesn't belong in the shark shiver. One fish is different from the other predators of the sea. Can you spot it in under 5 seconds?

Can you identify which one is different? You can find it in five seconds.



Take a look at the image above. A sea of cartoon sharks swims through the blue underwater setting, each flashing almost the same wide, toothy smile.

But among all these happy sharks, there's a cunning small fish that blends in so well that it may fool you. Do you see it?

Time is running out—5, 4, 3, 2... It's time to go!

You have a higher-than-average IQ if you are excellent at identifying the fish in the limited amount of time.

Are you still looking? It’s all right—this brain teaser was made to test how you process visual details and notice small differences.
