My Deep-sea Fishery

Chapter 308: Shrimp with captive starfish

, The fastest update of the latest chapter of my deep-sea fishery!

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

Sea anemone shrimp are called sea anemone shrimp because they live with sea anemones, and the two have a friendly symbiotic relationship.

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

Even some picky starfish and shrimp recipes only have starfish as the only food. They don't eat anything except starfish and would rather starve to death.

Sea star shrimp is also very picky about starfish. The most popular starfish species of starfish is pine starfish, followed by thorn-crown starfish and chain bead starfish. When food is scarce, starfish shrimp will also prey on finger starfish and other starfish.

After the sea star shrimp successfully defeated the sea star, opened the sea star and shredded its internal organs, it generally likes to eat the hoses on the sea star's tentacles first, and rarely eats the sea star's body disk, unless the food is very scarce.

In addition, the starfish shrimp is really very smart.

After fieldwork, marine biologists even discovered that some starfish shrimps are so smart that they only break a few starfish’s tentacles every time they prey, and then release the starfish’s body disk to escape, and save the tentacles of the starfish next time. Repeat the same trick when it grows out.

Some aquarium enthusiasts have also observed that starfish shrimp are prepared to store food. The starfish shrimp raised in the aquarium do not have a large food source, so they cherish every starfish very much.

An animal trainer in Changsha Submarine Park said that he has never seen marine creatures that are smarter and easier to feed than starfish and shrimp. If you keep starfish and starfish together, you only need to feed starfish, because those starfish shrimps They never kill the starfish. They eat only a few tentacles of the starfish each time they prey. When the tentacles of a starfish are eaten, they will change to another one and continue to eat. They never harm the core of the starfish.

Because the starfish has a very strong regeneration function, it 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, usually only a few starfish and a starfish shrimp can be harvested. Support balance.

What is very interesting is that starfish and shrimp only prey on adult starfish, and they will not prey on starfish cubs, they will even take care of them, just like the early hominid domesticated livestock.

"Captain, the fish tank you want is here." The two crew members carried a fish tank about a half meter and placed it in front of Xiang Yang.

"Thanks." Xiang Yang thanked him, and then dumped all the starfish and shrimp in the net into the fish tank.

Starfish prawns sink immediately after reaching the aquarium. Although they are prawns, they hardly swim and only crawl slowly on the bottom of the water.

However, their five pairs of feet are very flexible, they can crawl, they can also be used to resist enemies, and they can also be used to collect food. It’s just that Xiang Yang has forgotten how the five pairs of feet actually divide the work. When they are empty, they will know after feeding them a starfish.

A crew member put his eyes on the glass wall of the water tank. He licked his lips and curiously said, "Captain, these shrimps must be so delicious if you take them so seriously, right?"

"It tastes great?" Xiang Yang asked rhetorically.

"Yes." The crew member said naturally: "Otherwise, the captain would have sent them to the deck yourself, and immediately put them in the living water tank."

"I don't know if they are delicious, but it is definitely not easy to eat them." Xiang Yang said.

Even though the starfish shrimp are so fierce when they prey on starfish, they are actually only one of the marine predators at the bottom of the marine food chain. When they encounter a slightly more fierce marine predator, the starfish shrimp will stop cooking immediately.

Starfish shrimp like to wave their two large tongs when it is stationary on the seabed. The main reason for doing so is to make the starfish shrimp look very uncomfortable, thereby deterring possible enemies.

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

Starfish shrimp itself is not toxins, but they will absorb the toxins from their prey when they eat at ordinary times, making themselves the last supper of marine predators who prey on themselves, and they are typically ghosts.

"This kind of shrimp is called sea star shrimp, they will swallow all the toxins they have eaten in their lives, so they will store all the toxins in their bodies. If you are lucky, you may only have a stomach diarrhea. If you have bad luck..." Xiang Yang He smiled and didn't go on. No one can tell the specific toxin of the starfish shrimp. Anyway, it is not uncommon for dead people to be poisonous or not.

The crew member shuddered immediately, and his face was unwilling to stick to the glass tank for an instant. He had a lingering fear and said: "Captain, such horrible shrimp, why are you fishing for them?"

Xiang Yang looked at the crew member speechlessly, "Don't you think that a catch is a catch only if it can be eaten?"

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

The crew member also knew that he had said the wrong thing. He smiled awkwardly and changed the subject: "Captain, are you catching these shrimps for viewing?"

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

"Can a half-slap-sized shrimp worth hundreds of dollars?" The crew all looked at Xiang Yang in surprise.

Xiang Yang nodded. Even if the shrimp is a relatively valuable marine creature, ordinary large lobsters can be sold for hundreds of dollars per catty. The starfish shrimp relies on its dignity~www.readwn.com ~There is no reason to sell one for less than a few hundred dollars.

"Captain, are there too many of these shrimps here?" The crew became excited when they saw Xiang Yang nodding.

Xiang Yang smiled, "It's not easy to say, maybe there are only a dozen or so, and there may be many more, but I guess the number of starfish and shrimp 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 and shrimp have a very sufficient food source."

As soon as Xiang Yang finished speaking, another person appeared from under the seabed, Fang Youqun.

I saw him take off his helmet on the water and yelled: "Brothers, guess what I caught on the bottom of the sea? You will never guess. I caught a bunch of strange shrimps that looked like cows on the bottom of the sea... ..."

Xiang Yang stretched his head from the side of the ship.

Fang Youqun suddenly looked like a goose with his neck stuck in his neck. After a while, he sneered and said, "Brother Yang, are you here?"

Xiang Yang nodded and said with a smile, "It seems that there are a lot of starfish and shrimps below. Fang Youqun, how many have you caught?"
