My Deep-sea Fishery

As long as the outer skin of the starfish is punctured, the soft internal organs inside the body will be easily torn into pieces by the starfish shrimp.

Anemone shrimp are called anemone shrimp because they live alongside sea anemones in a friendly symbiotic relationship.

The starfish shrimp is called the starfish shrimp because the starfish preys on the starfish, and the relationship between the two is not friendly at all.

There are even some picky starfish shrimp recipes that only have starfish as a food. They don’t eat anything but starfish, and would rather starve to death.

And starfish are also quite picky about starfish. The most popular species of starfish is pine starfish, followed by crown of thorns starfish and chain bead starfish. When food is scarce, starfish shrimp will also prey on finger starfish and other starfish.

After the starfish shrimp successfully defeats the starfish, disembowels the starfish, and shreds the internal organs, it generally likes to eat the hoses on the tentacles of the starfish first, and rarely eats the body plate of the starfish, unless the food is very scarce.

Plus, starfish shrimp are really smart.

After field investigations, marine biologists even found that some starfish shrimps are so smart that they only break off a few starfish tentacles every time they prey, and then let the starfish's body disk escape, and keep them until the next time the starfish's tentacles come back again. When it grows out, repeat the old trick.

Some aquarium enthusiasts also observed that starfish shrimps can store food for war. The starfish shrimps kept in the aquarium do not have a large source of food, so they cherish every starfish.

An animal trainer in Changsha Submarine Park said that he has never seen a sea creature that is smarter and easier to feed than starfish shrimps. If you raise starfish shrimps with starfish, you only need to feed starfish, because those starfish shrimp They never kill the starfish, they only eat a little bit of the starfish's tentacles every time they prey, and when one starfish's tentacles are eaten up, they will continue to eat with another one, and they never hurt the starfish's core.

Because the starfish has a very strong regeneration function, the tentacles can grow back after a period of time after the tentacles are broken, and the food intake of the starfish shrimp is usually very small, and usually only a few starfish and one starfish shrimp can be harvested. support balance.

It is very interesting that starfish shrimp only prey on adult starfish, and they will not prey on starfish cubs, and even take good care of them, just like the early primitive people domesticated and raised animals.

"Captain, the fish tank you want is here." Two crew members carried a fish tank about half a meter in front of Xiang Yang.

"Thank you." Xiang Yang thanked, and then poured all the starfish shrimps in the net pocket into the fish tank.

The starfish sank immediately after arriving in the fish tank. Although they are shrimps, they can hardly swim and only crawl slowly on the bottom of the water.

However, their five pairs of legs are very flexible. They can crawl, defend against enemies, and collect food. However, Xiang Yang has forgotten how the five pairs of legs are divided. Find out after feeding them a starfish when you're free.

One of the crew members stuck his eyes to the glass wall of the water tank. He licked his lips and asked curiously: "Captain, you value these shrimps so much, they must taste very good, right?"

"It tastes great?" Xiang Yang asked back.

"That's right." The crew member took it for granted, "Otherwise, the captain, why would you personally send them to the deck and immediately raise them in the live water tank?"

"I don't know if they taste good or not, but I'm sure it won't be good after eating them," Xiang Yang said.

Don't look at how ferocious starfish are when they prey on starfish. In fact, they are only one of the marine predators at the bottom of the marine food chain. When encountering a slightly more ferocious marine predator, starfish will stop eating immediately.

The starfish likes to wave its two large pincers when it is stationary on the bottom of the sea. The main reason for this is to make the starfish look unfriendly and deter possible enemies.

If deterrence doesn't work, Starfish Shrimp will only have the last card left.

Starfish shrimp themselves are not toxin-free, but they absorb the toxins from their prey when they usually eat, making themselves the last supper for marine predators who prey on them, and they typically do not let go of ghosts.

"This kind of shrimp is called starfish shrimp. They will store all the toxins they swallowed in their lives in their bodies. If you are lucky, you may just have diarrhea after eating one. If you are unlucky." Xiang Yang smiled, I didn't go any further. No one can say exactly how poisonous the starfish shrimp is. Anyway, it is not uncommon for people to die if it is poisonous or not.

The crew member immediately shuddered when he heard this, and he was unwilling to stick his face against the glass tank for an instant. He said with lingering fear: "Captain, what are you doing with such terrifying shrimps?"

Xiang Yang looked at the crew member speechlessly, "You don't think that the catch is only edible, right?"

Edible marine fish only account for a very small part of seafood, as well as ornamental fish, medicinal seafood and so on.

The crew member also knew that he had said something wrong, so he smiled awkwardly, and changed the subject: "Captain, are the shrimps you caught here for viewing?"

Xiang Yang nodded, "The appearance of starfish shrimp is very beautiful. It is a very popular type of sea shrimp in the ornamental fish market. Each of these shrimps I caught is worth at least a few hundred yuan."

"Half a palm-sized shrimp is worth hundreds of dollars?" The crew members looked at Xiang Yang in surprise.

Xiang Yang nodded. Shrimp is considered to be a relatively valuable marine creature. Ordinary large lobsters can be sold for hundreds of dollars a catty. With its appearance, there is no reason why the starfish shrimp cannot be sold. Hundreds of dollars each.

"Captain, are there more shrimps of this kind down here?" The crew became excited after seeing Xiang Yang nodding.

Xiang Yang smiled, "It's hard to say, there may be only a dozen or so, and there may be many more, but I estimate that the number of starfish shrimps below will not be too small, because there is a huge seabed below. On the beach, there are not a few starfish living on the beach, and starfish shrimps have a very sufficient source of food."

As soon as Xiang Yang finished speaking, another person emerged from the bottom of the sea, it was Fang Youqun.

He took off his helmet on the surface of the water and shouted: "Brothers, guess what I caught at the bottom of the sea? You will never guess that I caught a group of strange shrimps that look like cows at the bottom of the sea."

Xiang Yang poked his head out from the side of the boat.

Fang Youqun suddenly looked like a gander with someone's neck stuck, and after a while he sneered and said, "Brother Yang, are you coming up?"

Xiang Yang nodded and said with a smile: "It seems that there are a lot of starfish shrimps down here. Fang Youqun, how many did you catch?"
