Those are images of fish found in a deep sea study done in either 2003 or 2004. They didn't wash up during the tidal wave. It's the beginning of a new web legend.

I have seen many of those same photos before as Dave said they are part of a study of deep sea life, the cutting board gives it away.

It also says the following in the page at the bottom.
"Although they are genuine images of some rather strange deep-sea creatures, these photographs have nothing to do with the Indian Ocean tsunami. They date from mid-2003 and were taken as part of the NORFANZ voyage, a joint Australian-New Zealand research expedition conducted in May-June 2003 to explore deep sea habitats and biodiversity in the Tasman Sea. These photographs can be viewed on Australia's National Oceans Office web site."
So deep sea study is right.
Weird stuff though huh?
