every moment of every day i am thinking about this tiktok

[purrfectly]

Lumpfish come in a variety of shapes and colors.

[He scoops up the fish, it spits water and he turns it toward the camera]

This one is stumpy and green. Very beautiful, very powerful.

[He picks up another fish and turns it toward the camera]

This is what a normal lumpfish looks like. It is more elongated, but still a vibrant blue color. Very beautiful, very powerful.

[He picks up another fish and turns it toward the camera]

This is one of the stumpiest ones we have. Its hump is very high. It is very stumpy, but yet very beautiful, and very powerful.

[He pans over a lot of fish, all looking up at the camera]

My fish army is ever growing, and soon I will over throw the world. Very beautiful, very powerful.

[saint-batrick]

because of this tiktok, i frequently murmur "very beautiful, very powerful" at myself, and i cannot recommend it enough.

Agdgsgsgsg I’m LIVING for this Reef2Reef thread. This guy was worried about his urchins getting sunburnt so he made them little hats

[letsgetsalty]

IT GETS BETTER

[bogleech]

In the wild these urchins will in fact carry a small rock or shell exactly on top like this and im so happy there's people taking advantage of that and who care about their urchins as pets.

[commander-ledi]

i visited an aquarium at some point, and our tour guide told that when the staff had a party, they put a little decorative plastic hat from a booze bottle into the sea urching tank, and just left it there because the sea urchins liked it, and kept taking turns in wearing it.

Tortoise skeletons are the weirdest skeletons.

[crimsoncatacombs-deactivated201]

I never wondered what they looked like before. Wow. I literally just gasped. How neat!

[bigbootyavocados-deactivated201]

Which is another reason you shouldn’t pick them up by their top shell

[why-animals-do-the-thing]

Everyone knows that you shouldn’t pick up a tortoise or turtle by their shell since their backbone is fused with it, but often it’s not really an easy thing to visualize how that works. Here’s a really cool image for that… 

[twinkletwinkleyoulittlefuck-dea]

Almost NOBODY knows this, because people don’t bother to simply show you a fucking image like this in school so before i saw this on tumblr i thought a turtle was simply a loose animal in a shell like a snail

[lostcargosupply]

“One who cannot love her smallest creations cannot claim to stand in front of Nature.”

The world lost a true master today.  Takashi Amano was an imaginative innovator and world-class artist.  He inspired enough people to start an artistic global movement and he will be sorely missed.

There is some good in this world, and it’s worth fighting for.
