Golden Fishery
v2 Chapter 960: .Beautiful seashells (5/10)
When Qin Shiou said that she wanted to conjure up tricks, Princess Lolita happily got to the stern of the boat and looked into the water according to Qin Shiou's guidance.
"What do you see there?" Qin Shiou asked, pointing to the coral reef underwater.
Princess Lolita looked around and said, "Yes, Xiaoyu?"
"Yes, this is the clownfish. Have you ever raised clownfish?" Qin Shiou said.
The most common fish near coral reefs is clownfish, which are associated with corals and sea anemones.
Princess Lolita shook her head and said: "No, I have seen it in movies, "Under the Sea Adventure", I have watched it several times, Nick is a clown fish, right?"
Qin Shiou nodded and smiled, and asked, "Are you going to get in touch with them?"
Princess Lolita looked at Qin Shiou curiously. The latter snapped his fingers together. The Poseidon's consciousness was dispatched and quickly controlled the two orange-red clownfish with white markings underwater.
When he snapped his first finger, the two swimming clownfish suddenly stiffened.
Then the snapping fingers sounded rhythmically, and the clownfish wagged its tail gracefully, followed the sound of the snapping fingers, swam up to the surface of the stern, and then slowly swam around, looking like it was domesticated. Very well-behaved.
Clownfish are generally small, and the largest one is more than ten centimeters. The two fish are only about four or five centimeters in length. Qin Shiou held up the water with his hands, and the clown fish waited quietly between his hands.
Princess Lolita exclaimed, then stretched out her hand to cover her small mouth, widened her eyes and asked in surprise: "God is here, how did you do it?!"
"This is a secret, I have never told anyone. I can tell you today." Qin Shiou motioned to his hands and went to scoop some water, then put the little fish between her little hands.
"I understand the language of fish, and my snapping fingers touched a specific frequency, and they can hear the sound of this frequency. Then when they heard my words, they floated up." Qin Shiou laughed.
Princess Lolita looked at him suspiciously, and said: "You lied to me, right? I'm not a kid under ten." But then she laughed again, "But I believe you. Because I trust you. Up."
Looking for a while, the water in her hand ran dry, and Princess Lori put the clown fish back into the sea.
Qin Shiou asked: "Do you want to raise them? Be with you?"
Samara nodded and shook her head, and said: "They are beautiful, but my family is in the desert, they won't like it there. The ocean is their hometown, let them stay in their hometown."
"You can keep them in a fish tank."
Samara continued to shook her head, "My brother used to raise a small eagle. My father told him that eagles belong to the sky. If they were raised in captivity, they would be very unhappy and would die. My brother would not listen. Then the eagle died, and I don’t want the clownfish to die too."
"Clownfish are not eagles. They can be bred, because they are ornamental fish. Moreover, you can raise some as you like, and they will give birth to baby fish." Qin Shiou said when she saw her a little reluctantly.
Clownfish are hermaphroditic animals. Males can become females, but females cannot become males. Each clownfish population has a dominant female and several adult males, the latter being hermaphrodite in adolescence. If the dominant female dies, one of the adult males will undergo hormonal changes and transform into a new female in the population.
So, just raise clownfish. Just don't cause the fish to die quickly because of the environment and feed. That can always reproduce.
Princess Lolita still shook her head, and said: "The fish tank is so small, I will feel unhappy in the palace, let alone the clown fish in such a small fish tank?"
"You are a kind girl." Qin Shiou laughed. He snapped his fingers and then released his control of the clownfish. The two small fishes fluttered their tails and disappeared without a trace.
While chatting with the little princess, Qin Shiou looked for beautiful shells on the bottom of the sea. The ones near the sea were too ordinary, so he went straight into the slightly deeper waters.
The seas around the Great Barrier Reef are like this. There is nothing left in the shallow sea and there are too many tourists. There are many beautiful species in the deep sea. Although people can dive into the deep sea again, they are just to enjoy the fun of diving, and they cannot get something there.
Australia also has regulations. In addition to fishing, deep-sea species cannot be caught, and there are also restrictions on fishing. Races, lengths, and sizes that do not meet the requirements are still not allowed to be brought.
The four sea **** consciousnesses searched the surrounding waters like a plow. When passing near a small coral reef, Qin Shiou's face was happy, and a beautiful shell was stuck on the coral reef.
The shell is smooth and shiny on the outside, it is pear-shaped as a whole, with protruding ends and a rounded back. The shell is golden yellow, with white spots of various sizes, such as star-shaped, scattered on it, and the topline is bowed to the right. The shells have fine ribs at both ends, reddish-brown in color, and a dark-brown marking on both sides of the base.
Qin Shiou has done much research on marine life, and he quickly distinguished its species when he saw this shell. This shell is Venus eyeball, whose scientific name is Venus snail. It lives in tropical and subtropical warm sea areas, from intertidal zone to deep rocky reef. , Coral reefs or sedimentary seabed have their traces.
Venus eyeball mainly feeds on algae or coral animals, so if you want to find it, you have to find it near the coral bushes. This is a species favored by shellfish collectors and has high viewing and collection value.
Before the trawl fishery appeared in the late 1980s, only a few dozen of these shells would be found a year. At that time, in Australia and Indonesia, a Venus eyeball shell over five centimeters could be exchanged for a house.
However, unless it is an A1 treasure with a length of more than seven centimeters, the value is not so great.
Finding this shell, Qin Shiou quickly put on the scuba gear and said to Princess Lolita: "Well, I won’t wait for that big-name diving instructor. I went to the sea to see. I heard a fish tell me that there are beautiful ones here. Seashells."
Biting the breathing tube and carrying the oxygen cylinder on his back, Qin Shiou slowly dived into the water, while the seagod consciousness rolled up the Venus eyeball and sent it up from the seabed at a depth of more than 100 meters.
Scuba diving is to a depth of forty meters, so Qin Shiou just wandered around the seabed.
He swam directly forward to converge with Poseidon’s consciousness, took the Venus eyeball and put it in his pocket.
This shell is about five centimeters long. Although it is not up to the standard of A1 treasures, it has been relatively rare in recent years. Especially this shell is still alive. Qin Shiou injected it with Poseidon energy so that it can maintain its vitality when it reaches the surface of the water. . (To be continued~^~)
