A massive 608-pound blue-fin tuna sold for $1.8 million in the first auction of 2020 at Tokyo’s Toyosu fish market on Sunday, marking the second highest selling fish ever sold on record.

He runs a sushi restaurant chain called Sushizanmai. The tuna was caught off the northern coast of Aomori Prefecture.
