Saying hi to Tino the giant pacific octopus (still young)

Employee perk: being able to see the kelp forest with no people around (before we open!
-
Keep your nudibranchs close and your anemones closer

@skinnylatte how many tickles does it take to make an octopus laugh?
-
@skinnylatte You inspired me to check YouTube for some kelp forest chillout, and I was not disappointed! Thank you!
-
@zenheathen you can view the same one I’m seeing!

The northern anchovy ‘yawns’ as it eats because it’s opening its mouth and eating everything
-
I got to squish a moon jelly

@[email protected] years ago my partner took me tidepooling with some friends, and everybody except for me was really excited: "wow, look at all these nudibranchs!" But all I was seeing was a bunch of slugs ...
(Eventually I figured it out.) -
-
@skinnylatte oh look at that, a new animal I can relate to
-
@skinnylatte very cool. Were you trepidatious? I definitely was the first time I picked up a jellyfish, even after seeing other folks pick them up just fine
-
@brendonjustin they explained that this type literally could not sting us. So that helped. In any case, only squished the tops
-
@skinnylatte I'm so happy for you and your new job! It seems really awesome.
-
@pezmico yes, it’s keeping me afloat right now
-
I think I’ll keep updating this thread to share the joy I see whenever I am onsite (which is going to be, often, coz I need this)
I learned that the jellies have circular tanks because.. they get stuck in corners
-
@skinnylatte thank you for these in this trying time! I feel like there should be a hashtag like seascrolling or something to go with them! 🥰
-
@skinnylatte super cool! What will you be doing there?
-
@curiousrobot great idea!
