Vertical Migration

Here's an idea

In real oceans the creepy fish that all like to live in the deep dark normally stay down toward the bottom of the ocean where its dark and safe during the daytime. However, at night time they perform a thing called vertical migration where they swim up toward the surface to feed in the shallower parts while the darkness of night makes it harder for predators to spot them. Then once daylight comes they move back down to the dark depths.

A cool idea to implement since there's already a day/night cycle would be for some of the things that normally live in the deeper depths to migrate up to the shallower areas during night fall. Would make the already creepy atmosphere even better by adding a new danger element from the deep predators moving toward the surface.

    Just adding to this idea (probably terribly, might I add). What if during a solar eclipse they come up, but when the moon moves out of the way all of the surface creatures see them and start attacking all of these strange monsters, making solar eclipses just a bit more deadly.
