Fish of the Day

Happy Tuesday everyone! Today's fish is the swordfish! Suggested by @shock-value (Another reminder that all y’all can suggest fish)

The swordfish is an amazing animal, recognized and named after the long bill extending from the top lip. Looking quite a bit like a sword as it stretches out. They belong to the family Xiphias gladius and in some countries are called "broadbills''. Swordfish reach about as large as the bluefin tuna, reaching 3 meters as well, with the largest recorded swordfish being almost 15 feet in length.

Fish of the Day

Wonderful Wednesday everyone!! Today we're focusing on hagfish!! One of the most hard to biologically classify animals in the deep.

The hagfish, known by many names and few lovers, is an amazing fish. This is due to the fact we are unsure we can consider them a fish due to their strangeness. The hagfish is a deep sea, eel shaped animal that is known for its lack of bones. Known by names such as  the Myxini family (also sometimes known within scientific communities as Hyperotreti), it is also referred to as slime eels.  However within practical communication the name most commonly used is hagfish.

Fish of the Day

Good Tuesday! Today's focus is on the gulper eel!

The gulper eel, also known as the pelican eel and Eurypharynx pelecanoides is a species of deep sea eel that is very rarely seen by humans due to their scarcity and their depth. They are found in the temperate and the tropical ocean around the world at the depth of 1,600 to 9,800 feet deep.

Leafy Sea Dragon

Phycodurus eques

Here's my first #MarineBioArt, the Leafy Sea Dragon.

The Leafy Sea Dragon is a pipe fish that is super adapted for camouflage. All members of the pipefish family, Syngnathidae, have fused jaws that they suck up small plankton, larvae, and crustaceans. Syngnathids are also known for the father taking primary care of eggs after the female gives birth by holding them in a pouch on their underside.

Leafy Sea Dragons are found only in kelp and sea grass forests along the southern coasts of Australia. Like Sea Horses, they have very reduced fins, and move very slowly through their environment, depending heavily on their camouflage for avoiding predation.

Paper Weaving Seahorse Craft for Kids

Via Artsy Craftsy Mom – Top Indian hobby, art and craft blog for kids

Learn about an amazing sea creature with this paper weaving seahorse craft for kids! Includes multiple techniques of cutting, printing and weaving.

There’s one thing in our home that everyone fights for. No it’s not the morning paper; it’s bubble wrap! As soon as a package comes in, the war for the wrap begins, and the victor enjoys the spoils by sitting and bursting one bubble after another. I can’t explain it, but there’s something so soothing about hearing those little pops!

However, if you ever have the self control to stop yourself from popping those bubbles, then we’ve got a project for you that’s so good it’ll make that abstinence worth it! Bubble wrap projects are fun to make, and today we’re making a paper weaving seahorse craft that uses bubble wrap to make the sea. 

Seahorses are fun creatures aren’t they? Did you know that seahorses belong to the Syngnathidae family of fish, which are the only creatures whose males get pregnant? Amazing, right? Here are some more fun facts about Seahorses:

They can move each eye independently of the other Seahorses are monogamous; they mate for life With no stomach, seahorses must eat constantly to stay alive Most other animals avoid eating the seahorse since it is too bony to digest Okay, that must have got you all interested to start making your very own seahorse. Let’s begin!
