🐠 Daily Fish Fact: 🐠

Coelacanths were once known only from fossils and were thought to have gone extinct approximately 65 million years ago. Much to scientists' surprise, the first living coelacanth was discovered in 1938. Numerous characteristics are unique to this fish. Among them is the presence of a "rostral organ" in the snout that is part of the electrosensory system, and an intracranial joint or "hinge" in the skull that allows the anterior portion of the cranium to swing upwards, greatly enlarging the gape of the mouth.

The second image is of a different species, the largescale four-eyes (Anableps anableps). I included it due to how well it shows the eye, and as a result of far fewer photos available of Anableps dowei. This animal was requested!

this came to me in a dream

empress, holding her newborn: i wonder whos baby this is

baby: *opens its eyes* 💿 ^ 💿

empress: congrats navia

NOT THE HOLOGRAPHIC SPARKLY EYES 😭

But ykw, this is so true. Navia’s eyes are so sparkly and pretty, you could say that she’s “got that James Dean, daydream, look in her eye…”

And her children with the Empress would inherit these beautiful eyes too! Actually, now that I think about it…a lot of the genshin women have super unique eyes. Like, I can just imagine:

Shenhe’s baby: 🌈^🌈

Furina’s baby: ⚪️^🔵

Candace’s baby: 🔵^🟡

Arlecchino’s baby: ❌^❌

Hu Tao’s baby: 🌸^🌸

#🫧feeding the fishes #empress au #cackling at this #the empress’ heirs are all going to have such unique anime eyes #because the empress’ eyes are canonically beautiful #so mix that in with other unique eyes #and you get some really interesting genetic results

Hey 🗑️🔥 gang (@katkastrofa @rokurookajima @shadelorde)…

Heard you guys like feral women 😏😏😏

#yes this is directly inspired by Syd and Nightmare’s recent animalistic Raava pieces #I’m sorry if you expected something related to the spirit kites but I’m obsessed with my OCs first and foremost #and Suiren is already very feral in most verses. the mermaid AU just adds a biological factor to it #but actually. fun fact. she doesn’t even look as feral as she would be were she a full mermaid #(yeah I’m spoiler alert that’s not really a spoiler given that I drew a lot for this AU last year and already gave it away. Ghazan’s human)#(meaning Suiren’s only half mermaid. I’ve never drawn her in this AU but I imagine Ming-Hua looking ever more monster like)#(bc I dislike when mermaids are just pretty girls with fish tails. give me FANGS and CLAWS and SCALES and GILLS and FINS)#(so yeah. Ming-Hua has a lot more scaled and also dorsal fins running higher up her back. and a more dexterous tail. I should draw her)#but I hope the vibe still comes across. with the blood and all 😁#was it a fish she ate or a too curious human? that’s for me to know and for you to find out #ANYWAY!! some new headcanons about my mermaids based on what you guys said about human Raava:#my mermaids don’t inherently know human language. their underwater communication sounds similar to whale singing #above water it’s more of a chirping noise? though more elongated and melodic than a dolphin’s. something between a trill and a whine #and most don’t have the capacity to speak human language. but sirens have unique vocal chords that allow the siren spell to work #it’s similar to a parrot’s. they’re very good at mimicry. it’s an evolutionary hunting tactic #but they also have more developed brains than a parrot’s therefore can not only mimic but consciously speak #though it takes time to master. like a foreign language #am I implying that when Mingzan met as kids they couldn’t understand each other and Ghazan taught her to speak human? yes. yes I am #because I’m a sucker for language barriers and think that scenario is adorable. fucking sue me.#and obliviously Suiren was taught both mermaid and human. but it was Midori who helped her keep up her knowledge #(look I don’t have that part plotted out yet but Something happens to their parents and they’re left on their own. as a parallel to SotRL)#(also btw Midori was born without a tail but still not quite human. she has scales and gills and ear fins and fangs and glowing eyes)#(and no one but Suiren and Haya know about all that. Haya makes her hide it and convinces her that she’s a half fish freak :/)#(at least.. until a certain Beifong with an interest in marine biology comes along…)#(yes Green Opal in this verse are the epitome of ‘there are many benefits to being a marine biologist’)#how did I end up talking about Midori. anyway. yes I made both Kuvira and Ghazan monsterfuckers. no I’m not ashamed #my art #artists on tumblr #Nia’s mermaid AU #sotrl suiren

🦈 Daily Shark Fact: 🦈

The Bluegrey Carpetshark is a nocturnal species, which shelter on rocky reefs during the day and forages around the reef and surrounding substrates, including seagrass beds, during the night. This species receives refuge in marine national parks or sanctuary zones of marine protected areas that overlap with its distribution.

But, how...? How do you maintain the fish tank in this "Aquatic House?" Built in 1960 by Scottsdale, AZ's most prolific developer/investor/designer, the 4bd, 4ba, 2,509 sq ft home has a 1,200 gal. fish tank in the floor. $1.6m.
