My Deep-sea Fishery

"It's not just that simple, the vampire squid is very smart." Zhang Qicheng proudly said: "When the vampire squid is in the deep sea, it can not only turn off the lights and hide in the dark as a means of escape, it also knows how to use lights to confuse opponent."

Xiang Yang nodded.

Yes.

After the vampire squid senses danger in the deep sea, it will wrap itself in membranes and tentacles. The light organs of the whole body only expose the two light emitters on the head to emit a very dazzling strong light, and then the strong light will gradually fade away Dim to give predators the illusion that it has fled.

Vampire squid use this method to avoid most marine predators in the deep sea.

In addition, the vampire squid will "double".

If the marine predators are already very close to it, and when it is no longer enough to deceive the marine predators with its confusing means, it will instantly spray a large amount of luminous ink to confuse the predators, and it will instantly become Dim and run away.

These magical abilities made the vampire squid almost extinct in the same period, and it is still alive and well.

"This vampire squid is not cheap, is it?" Xiang Yang is obviously most concerned about the price of the vampire squid.

Vampire squid and octopus have a common ancestor. Compared with ordinary octopuses, the biggest difference between them is that they hide in the deep sea, where they can be seen everywhere.

It is difficult for ordinary fishermen to catch vampire squids in the deep sea, but it is not difficult for Xiang Yang to catch them.

If these vampire squids were really valuable enough, Xiang Yang would still dive into the deep sea to catch some that came up.

"It's not very expensive." Li Chao obviously saw Xiang Yang's thoughts, he said: "In terms of food value, blood-sucking squid is not a kind of seafood accepted by the public, its food value is not as high as ordinary ones, Its main value comes from ornamental value."

"Although blood-sucking squid is a seawater ornamental fish, it can be classified into the three major series of lamp species in tropical freshwater ornamental fish. The one brought back by Lao Zhang is worth about 2,000 yuan. They Living in the extremely deep deep sea, it is not easy to catch, and the pay is not proportional to the return, I suggest you not to play this thing."

"There are three major series of tropical freshwater ornamental fish?" Xiang Yang asked.

"Yes, but you are not specialized in freshwater fish. You may only know about the angelfish series." Zhang Qicheng smiled and said, "The three major series of tropical freshwater ornamental fish are lamp species, angelfish, and dragon fish."

Xiang Yang raised his eyebrows, "Angelfish is actually a series?"

"That's right." Zhang Qicheng nodded.

"Seawater ornamental fish are not popular in fact. The existing seawater ornamental fish mainly come from the coral reef waters in the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. Although there are not many species, they have strange body colors and a primitive, simple and mysterious natural beauty."

"The most popular ornamental fish are undoubtedly temperate freshwater ornamental fish, such as red crucian carp, goldfish, and koi. These are all well-known fish species, which are incomparable to any sea fish."

Goldfish are the earliest ornamental fish, and raising goldfish is one of people's common hobbies, just like raising kittens and puppies.

Especially in the late 1980s, the ornamental fish market gradually expanded in Yangcheng. At that time, almost one of every three households in Yangcheng had a fish tank.

The most common "lion head" can be sold in aquarium shops ranging from tens to hundreds of yuan. Goldfish have revealed aristocratic origins since then.

However, raising goldfish is very difficult and the survival rate is low. Usually, if the water is not changed for two days or the food is forgotten for one day, it will die. Therefore, the number of fish farmers gradually decreased in the early 21st century.

The aquarium market has also changed from cultivating large quantities of fry to cultivating high-quality fish as the mainstream.

The price of noble goldfish began to rise in a straight line.

Koi became a goldfish star in the early 1990s, and an expensive koi could sell for thousands or even tens of thousands of yuan in that era.

I don't know when the dragon fish became famous overnight after the koi.

Arowanas of good shape and color must sell for at least 30,000 yuan.

Especially in recent years, the prices of koi and red dragons have almost skyrocketed. The price of an adult red dragon with body, scales, and elegant posture can almost buy a small property right house in a super first-tier city like Yangcheng.

However, the status of temperate freshwater goldfish this year seems to be challenged by tropical freshwater lamp fish species. "Fluorescent fish" is a new species introduced from abroad in the past two years. The price of small fish less than two centimeters long can reach 90 yuan, and it doesn't even look at the appearance.

After understanding the market situation, Xiang Yang pondered for a moment and asked, "Now all fish farmers like to raise fish that will shine?"

"That's not true, it depends on the appearance." Li Chao said with a smile: "The lantern fish is the most famous luminous fish. If you change this fish, would you keep it for fun?"

Lantern fish is monkfish.

A sea fish as ugly as Mr. Fish.

Xiang Yang nodded, raising that kind of fish, indeed, he was shocked when he saw it.

However, Xiang Yang has a sea fish that can emit light besides the lantern fish, which is the sunfish he caught from the sea some time ago.

That's right, sunfish is also a marine fish that glows.

In addition to being called sunfish by fishermen, it also has a very nice name called moon fish.

The sunfish lives in the tropical ocean, and there are often many luminous animals attached to its body. When it swims, its body will shine brightly. It looks like a bright moon from a distance, so it has the reputation of moon fish.

So Xiang Yang told Zhang Qicheng about the sunfish.

He said: "Mr. Zhang, I caught a sunfish on my boat, do you want to pull it over and raise it?"

"Sunfish?"

"Nursing?"

Both Zhang Qicheng and Li Chao looked at Xiang Yang strangely, "Can the fish survive after being caught?"

The sunfish is a very strange sea fish. Its vitality is strong, even if it is bitten by a sea lion for a while, and then thrown on the beach, it can still live for a long time.

But to say that their vitality is fragile, it is really very fragile.

Sunfish are fish with extremely low psychological resistance. Any fright may make them very nervous, and when they get nervous, they will commit suicide immediately.

Xiang Yang nodded, "Alive."

Li Chao is not very interested in that sunfish, "The intestines of that fish are very high-grade ingredients, but I don't want fish meat other than fish intestines."

Xiang Yang looked at Zhang Qicheng.

Zhang Qicheng smiled and shook his head, "A sunfish has at least a few hundred catties of meat. The meat of this kind of fish is not easy to sell. If you can't sell it, you can send it to me to make fish balls and keep it for yourself."
