Fluidr / Touch My Kisser by Wes Iversen

Not all fish have lips, but Koi fish like this one do. Koi lips are covered with sensory cells that help them feel objects. It also helps them taste. These fish also have prominent nostrils, which you can see here on the head between the eyes. (The left nostril looks like an eye on first glance.) Water passes through the nostrils during swimming, which helps the fish smell.
