“…a sea floor…at first glance might appear to be sand and mud, when you look closely and…just wait, all sorts of creatures show themselves, with little heads popping out of the sand. It is a metropolis.” – Sylvia Earle 🌊 And so, too, is the small world in a marine aquarium. Full list of saltwater arrivals below.

Saltwater Saturday special feature: the Purple Queen Anthias! With these colors, the name is self-explanatory. 🙌 These fish can be finicky eaters, but the ones we have received are already eating frozen shrimp! If you ever get one that is being picky, with a start of copepods, live baby brine shrimp, and some patience a transition to frozen or pellet food is possible. They’ll be well worth the work!

This week’s saltwater arrivals are electric! Literally. As can be seen below, the Electric Flame Scallop shoots bright blue-white electricity across its mantel, creating quite the light show. It is thought that this fascinating trait is to help draw in its primary food, plankton. It may also be used as a warning to predators. Full list of saltwater arrivals below.

Saltwater Saturday special feature: the Green Clown Goby! These small, strangely shaped fish live among the reefs of the Indo Pacific. Their specialized fins are used to suction cup to corals, keeping them securely perched against strong currents. They are also prolific breeders: put any two together and if needed one will change sex to make a pair! Before you know it, you’ll have cute little Green Clown Goby babies!
