My Deep-sea Fishery

Chapter 151: Giant anemone

   Anemone shrimp is a very valuable species of shrimp.

   Its fame does not lie in its scarcity, but in its beauty and its difficulty in catching.

If it is diving fishing, the ultra-small size allows the sea anemone shrimp to hide in the sea anemone at any time, and the versatile transparent body color makes him have the ability to "change color", and fishermen usually get the shrimp from the sea anemone when diving. The upper reaches of the head can't find each other in the past.

   As for trawl fishing, even the finest nets can hardly catch anemone shrimps that are only two to three centimeters long.

   Xiang Yang carefully observed the group of sea anemone shrimps. This group of sea anemone shrimps were mainly purple scalloped anemone shrimps, and a small part was white scorched anemone shrimps.

Xiang Yang thought it was a bit strange. Although the purple-spotted anemone shrimp and the white-spotted anemone shrimp are both called anemone shrimp, and they are both more common species of anemone shrimp, in fact they are not the same kind of shrimp at all, except for the spots on the body. In addition to the different colors, the spots on the tail of the shrimp are also different. The tail of the purple-spotted anemone shrimp has two dots similar to eyes, and the tail of the white-spotted anemone shrimp has five orange spots with black edges.

   Two different kinds of shrimps can live together harmoniously, and it is truly amazing that they can merge into one group.

It is worth mentioning that sea anemone shrimp can be raised as an ornamental fish very well. Although they are omnivorous creatures, they prefer to eat meat. The staple food is generally the food residue of giant sea anemones. They are typical clean shrimps. They are kept in water tanks. The inside can effectively keep the water tank clean.

There was a period of time when anemone shrimp was very popular in the ornamental fish market, but gradually I don’t know why. Until now, not many people like to raise anemone shrimp. There is a saying that it is the cost and reward of raising anemone shrimp. Not proportional.

Because the anemone shrimp often appear in groups in the rocks under the ocean at a depth of 25 meters to 25 meters, it is difficult for fishermen to find them, and each time they are found, they are caught in large groups, so even if the anemone shrimp grows very Beautiful, it can reflect the colorful colors under the light and it is difficult to sell a good price.

Xiang Yang grabbed a purple-spotted sea anemone shrimp and placed it in front of his eyes to take a closer look. It was really different from other shrimps. Its head and eyes were completely transparent, even if it was held in the palm of the hand if you didn't look carefully. Its head and eyes cannot be seen at all, and its fan-shaped tail has a pair of brightly colored false eyes. This is very similar to a butterfly fish. The pair of false eyes can induce predators to regard its tail as head.

   Xiang Yang was not interested in this small shrimp-like anemone shrimp, but he did not leave immediately, but continued to search carefully in place.

   Xiangyang wanted to see if an anemone could be found nearby.

Sea anemone shrimp is a kind of small shrimp that lives in symbiosis with large sea anemones. Sea anemones provide shelter and food for sea anemone shrimps, while sea anemone shrimps are responsible for the cleaning of sea anemones, so sea anemones are found in most cases. Anemone shrimp means that sea anemones have been found.

Compared with sea anemone shrimp, Xiang Yang is obviously more interested in sea anemone. Compared with sea anemone shrimp, which is less valuable and has a worrying market prospect, the most inferior artificially cultivated sea anemone on the market can also be sold for dozens of dollars. A catty of slightly better quality anemones can be sold for hundreds of dollars a catty, while wild anemones can cost hundreds of dollars a catty.

  Also, sea anemones are not the same as abalone. The abalone is too courageous and likes to hide in the crevices of rocks. It's too hard to find.

   Where is the sea anemone?

   They will be distributed in pieces like plants on the bottom of the sea. As long as you find that you don’t even need a net bag, you can just lift a sack down to load it.

   Xiangyang follows the anemone shrimp, swimming as far as possible to the place where there are many anemone shrimp.

   Swim further a distance, Xiang Yang found a lot of shells of anemone shrimp on the seabed.

   This discovery made Xiang Yang very excited.

Sea anemone shrimp and sea anemone often establish a symbiotic relationship. Because the stinging cells on the sea anemone’s tentacles are highly toxic, sea anemone shrimp must cover the whole body with the mucus secreted by the sea anemone in order to avoid accidental injury by the sea anemone. Every time the anemone shells, the anemone will leave the anemone first until a new shell grows, and will be covered with a layer of mucus from the anemone before it will return to the anemone.

  Because the anemone shrimp separated from the sea anemone are very fragile, they usually do not leave the sea anemone too far when they shed their shells, so Xiang Yang is sure that there are definitely sea anemones nearby.

   Sure enough, when Xiang Yang swam forward and passed a huge reef, he suddenly found that the ocean in front was covered with giant sea anemones like small umbrellas.

   Xiang Yang was overjoyed immediately after discovering it. He picked an anemone with the size of a grinding plate and stuffed it into the net bag, and stuffed the entire net bag bulgingly.

   Xiang Yang is not greedy, and after remembering this location, he heads directly toward the sea.

   Back on the deck, there were many crew members resting on the deck. They all smiled and confessed to Xiang Yang when they saw Xiang Yang coming up, telling Xiang Yang how many abalones they had caught.

   Xiang Yang looked at the joyous people and was very excited. Today is definitely a great harvest day for him.

   Fang Youqun waited until everyone had finished talking before he said: "Brother Yang, did you catch another single-headed abalone?"

   Xiang Yang shook his head~www.wuxiahere.com~ smiled and said, "I haven't caught abalone since I went down just now."

   "Didn't catch the abalone?" Everyone looked at Xiang Yang in confusion, "No way, Captain, there are so many abalones underneath, and you even caught a single-headed abalone. Why don't you go down to catch the abalone?"

   Fang Youqun reached out to Xiang Yang's net bag tied around his waist and grabbed it, "I don't even catch abalone, Brother Yang, let me see what you catch in your net bag, and I'll go down and grab this later."

   "Don't move." Xiang Yangyi grasped Fang Youqun's bronze-skinned wrist.

   "Uh." Fang Youqun was a little surprised. He didn't expect Xiang Yang's reaction to be so big. He hurriedly explained: "Brother Yang, I just want to see what's in your net bag."

   Xiang Yang then let go of Fang Youqun's wrist, and whispered: "This thing in my net bag is very poisonous. If you want to touch it, go and wear your gloves."

   "Very poisonous?" Chen Qingsheng er said, "Captain, are you a jellyfish that caught a net bag? That thing seems worthless."

   "It's not a jellyfish." After Xiang Yang said something, he stopped explaining, and directly untied the net bag, revealing the giant anemone in the net bag.

   "Hiss!" There was a sound of cold breathing around, "God, this is an anemone? Such a big anemone"

Xiang Yang smiled. He knew why the crew were so shocked. Everyone on this ship had seen sea anemones, and they often saw them. Everyone was very familiar with sea anemones, but the kind of sea they saw on weekdays. The anemone is no more than the size of a plastic bottle cap. Compared with the sea anemone that is as big as an umbrella right now, it looks like two creatures, no wonder they are shocked.
