Blue
Crabs
Spend
the
Winter
resting
in Deep
Water.
We like
to catch
blue
crabs
off the
dock
when we
visit
the
beach,
but when
the
weather
cools we
can’t
find
any.
Where do
they go?
During
winter,
blue
crabs (Callinectes
sapidus)
pass the
days in
deeper
water,
burrowed
in muddy
or sandy
bottoms.
There
they lie
dormant
with
only
their
antennae,
the tips
of their
eyestalks
and
small
breathing
channels
visible
above
the mud.
About
March,
the
crabs
dig out
and
begin
their
spring
and
summer
feeding,
shedding
and
breeding.

Amazon
Voyage:
Vicious
Fishes
and
Other
Riches
Five years in the making, Amazon Voyage is the creation of the Miami Museum of Science & Planetarium, and that's where the exhibition made its debut this past February. After a stint at Washington, D.C.'s Smithsonian, Amazon Voyage will dock in Pittsburgh from September 2 through January 7, 2007. Along with activities, original multimedia presentations, computer interactives, story telling, live fish in specially-designed tanks, artifacts, costumes, dance, music, and live demonstrations, the exhibit features a colorful mural ...

More
than
3,000
Octopus
Babies
Hatch at
Seaside
Aquarium.
Visitors
to the
Seaside
Aquarium
this
week may
have a
chance
to catch
a
glimpse
of the
newly
hatched
octopus
eggs –
or 3,000
chances.
The
octopuses
are
difficult
to see
because
they are
not laid
at the
same
time. So
the eggs
will not
hatch
all at
once.
About 20
or of
the
three-thousand
eggs
have
already
been
born.
And the
eggs are
about
the size
of a
grain of
rice.

The
Giant
Danio
Can Keep
Growing.
“Muscle
growth
in
vertebrates
is
defined
as being
either
determinate
or
indeterminate,”
the
authors
wrote.
“Animals
such as
mammals
exhibit
determinate
growth,
in which
there is
a finite
size. In
contrast,
many
fish
species
growth
is
indeterminate,
in which
there is
no fixed
size and
some
growth
may
continue
throughout
the life
of the
fish.”

Expert
excited
by New
Fish
Find.
A
Darwin-based
world
expert
on
tropical
fish has
been
called
on to
help
identify
a
previously
unknown
specimen
found in
the west
Solomon
Islands.
Dr Helen
Larson
says the
gobioid,
nicknamed
the
'noodle
fish',
cannot
be
gutted
for
examination
because
it is a
single
specimen.
The fish
was
found in
a river
on an
uninhabited
island
by a
researcher
from the
University
of the
South
Pacific.
Dr
Larson
says it
is a
thrill
to
encounter
an
unknown
fish
species.
"It's a
bit like
finding
a
unicorn
in the
bottom
of your
garden,"
she
said.
"Just a
complete
out-of-the-blue,
something
completely
unknown
that
you've
never
seen
before."
