Digiman Posted December 23, 2013 Author Share Posted December 23, 2013 I visited BlueHarbour and Osaka aquarium last week and I thoroughly enjoyed myself! Here is a sharing of my trip. Not fish. But when i entered the shop, Koji just received a box of deepwater inverts from the local fisherman. Trawled up from 200m deep japan water, these creatures need to be kept at 18 degree to survive. Giant Isopod and hermit crab Hermit Crab and Hard coral!! Hermit Crab with an anemone attached to the shell (My favourite piece) Sea spiders, lobsters, hermit crab Deepwater anemone and hard corals put in the tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
