Our last post on Amazing Fish changed the Reddit Logo
Wow, big thanks to Reddit for that sharp update! After our last post on “27 Aquatic lifeforms you never caught while fishing” and another one that followed on Reddit, which was “This Fish Looks Like the Reddit Logo“, Reddit has decided to change their logo for a while!
old logo
new logo 
Here’s the original picture that created the change (or is it a coincidence?):

I love Reddit. I REALLY love Reddit. This is why I have a Reddit bumper-sticker on my car. They’re too cool.

They should leave it that way permanently. The alien wasn’t great in my opinion.

if you’re not fishing to eat and just fishing for fun it is pretty f-ed up if you think about it.

That is a strange, but cool looking aquatic life form.

Now that is rather hilarious. Hope the new guy sticks around a bit, nice to see a fresh face on the logo.

Reddit is simplier tha other but does not have a noteworhy content. It’s like a toplist.

Do you have permission to use that photograph as the (obvious) basis for your logo?

ha-ha! That’s awesome that Reddit did that - does look freakishly similar.

Very interesting. I do wonder however if there will be some copyright infringement with that original photo. Looks like they traced it. Crazy.

Here’s another piece of triviia - “Axolotl” used to appear written in random places on very early issues of Mad Magazine. Looking at the appearance I can see the appeal…
