Did you know Pistol Shrimp are nearly blind?

This species likes to pair with gobies in a symbiotic relationship. The goby watches out for the Pistol Shrimp by chasing off fish that get close, while the Pistol Shrimp makes a safe and cozy home. This pairing mostly depends on the size of the goby.

Wait!? Urchins have mouths!? 👄

Urchins have structure called an Aristotle’s Lantern made of five hard plates. 🖐 The hard plating comes together in a beak that helps scrape algae off coral and rocks.

Did you know there are roughly 950 different species of urchin?! 🤯 Of all the different species, only 18 are edible as some urchins are deadly, for example The Flower Sea Urchin that can cause severe pain, respiratory problems, and even paralysis! 💀🌸
