Did you know that coral reefs, which cover less than 1% of the ocean floor, are home to more than 25% of all marine life? They are among the most valuable and vulnerable ecosystems on Earth. They provide many benefits and services to humans and the environment. However, many threats and challenges endanger coral reefs. Therefore, we must learn more about them to protect them.

Did you know that coral reefs are animals, not plants? Strange, right? But that is a fact that we will also cover in the blog.

If you want to know more about coral reefs, their types, their importance, and how to conserve them, keep reading. You will be amazed by the beauty and wonder of these amazing marine ecosystems.

idk if y'all have seen the tiktok octopus saga but it is INCREDIBLE

man finds out local aquarium stores can order an octopus for you and decides to get one for his son who loves octopuses

they do tons of research and cycle a tank for a month, etc.

octopus arrives and instead of, like, an adolescent, is a full-grown adult octopus

they have to emergency purchase a larger tank

after 2 months, the octopus lays eggs, which for this species indicates she's close to the end of her life

octopus will not leave eggs but will eat if they hand her stuff

they know they've got about 6-8 more weeks bc that is octopus egg incubation period

she has laid fifty (50) eggs

eggs are presumably not fertilized

this species of octopus is very hard to breed in captivity, even for professionals

you can see where this is going

eggs start hatching

there are FIFTY (50) eggs

they have to monitor the tank CONSTANTLY bc baby octopus will hide/camouflage against the rocks and die and they are small enough to get sucked into the filtration system

there are FIFTY (50) eggs

at first it is 1-2 at a time so it is manageable. they are in perforated soda bottles. it's fine

then one night SIXTEEN (16) hatch SIMULTANEOUSLY in the middle of the night which (as of this afternoon) brings them to i believe 23

there are FIFTY (50) eggs

have i mentioned this is the family's FIRST EVER PET

the dad is contacting marine biology programs, aquariums, research facilities, etc. to find SOMEONE who will take some of these baby octopuses

NO ONE WILL TAKE THEM

THERE ARE FIFTY (50) EGGS

this is genuinely one of the funniest sagas i have ever followed in real time (though i don't actually know what the timeline is since the account has only been posting since the beginning of march and this has been going on for probably at least 6 months), please go watch it

This is the Italian Coral good luck charm in 14k solid yellow gold 😍 Made as custom order for @wordymom The ancients believed that coral stones have divine blood in them which had numerous beneficial properties. The Romans used to hang corals around their necks so as to protect and preserve them from any kind of danger. During the early half of the 20th century, Italian people used coral to cure infertility and for protection from “evil eye”. Corals often represent wisdom, happiness, modesty and immortality. They are also believed to be able to get rid of stress, anxiety, fears, nervousness, nightmares, panicking, foolishness and depression. It can also help in ensuring success and wealth for an individual. These stones can strengthen foresight and can be a perfect tool for meditation, spiritual seeking and visualization. The area close to Torredel Greco in Naples, Italy has been an important center for coral fishing for hundreds of years.More than 70% of the world’s supply of corals comes from this region. The Italian coral stone has also been used time and again in various artworks over the centuries. #coralreef #reef #coral #reefaquarium #saltwatertank #reefaddict #corals #ocean #redcoraljewelry #jewelrydesigner #handmadejewelry #rockstarjewelry #coraljewelry #statementpiece #corallorosso #accessories #power #style #vintagejewelry #coralring #coralcabochons#stackingring#showmeyourrings#artdecoring #jewelryforsale#corallovers #retrojewelry#Etsyseller#victorianjewelry #ringoftheday https://www.instagram.com/p/CFyupAynW2f/?igshid=1c53wvl13cz52

Got the 150 gallon tank up and running and man this thing is coming together really nice. Added the Giesemann Matrixx II T5 with the kessils on the end. Hopefully the corals enjoy the lighting lol #corals #saltwater #saltwatertank #saltwateraquarium #aquarium #fishtank https://www.instagram.com/p/B9YFeV1Beb0/?igshid=o7l3yguraf21
