California Academy of Science worked with Tenji Aquarium Design+Build to build a total jellyfish system designed to culture jellyfish through every point of their life stage. The feat of engineering is impressive! Plus there is a nifty bonus seahorse culturing system. by Admin | Apr 29, 2015 | Advanced Aquarist

Evisceration is not a sexy topic. Gross as it may be, it is an excellent defensive mechanism that a select few animals can do. Most of us know about a sea cumcumber's ability to expel its digestive tract to escape predators, but they aren't the only reef creatures able to do this. Tunicates (AKA sea squirts) also can. Scientists discovered the amazing extent of tunicates' ability to regenerate and how this research may help humans. by Admin | Apr 21, 2015 | Advanced Aquarist
A new Japanese dwarf goby has just been officially cataloged into the books. Like many other new Trimma and Eviota species recently discovered, Trimma yoshinoi is another pint-sized beauty!
