Well if you haven't, you probably are now.
Turns out just like humans, they lose their "tan".
If they are kept in constant darkness, their chromatophores are unable to produce more pigment, which means that once the colours that they had to start with start to fade, their bodies (cells) will be unable to produce more.

Most of you may only know the Anglerfish as the fish at the bottom of the deep blue see that chased Marlin and Dory around as they searched frantically for Nemo, BUT there is so much more to know!
These fish take "Until death do us part" to a whole next level.
Once they male finds his female partner, he latches on to her and never lets go.
His body and organs then fuse to her until they share a bloodstream! (See image 2)

𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐥 𝐁𝐞𝐝 𝐒𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐦
A gravel bed is an irrigated bed or pile of gravel where bare root or washed containerized stock is placed and safely held for up to 3-6 months.
This system has been in use at commercial nurseries, municipalities, and universities for over 20 years.
ACI had the pleasure to install one for our client in the Western Cape.
Not only can it be used for a normal gravel bed system, it can be used as a deep water culture where you are able to fill it up with water and plant in Styrofoam for easy hydroponics.

The oldest known aquaculture site in the world is in Australia! 😲
While Australia is well known for its beautiful scenery and coastline, not many people know that it is also contains the oldest known aquaculture sight in the world.
More specifically, the site is located in Budj Bim.
This site is over 6 600 years old and contains evidence that it was used to farm eel and other fish.
