A team of highly trained scientific divers explored Pacific and western Atlantic reefs to test a widely held hypothesis that climate-stressed life from shallow reefs can take refuge at mesophotic depths (100-500 feet beneath the ocean's surface). The results are clear: deep and shallow reefs are different systems with their own species, and deep reefs are just as threatened by climate impacts, storms, and pollution. [...]

New research has confirmed that invasive rats decimate seabird populations, with previously unrecognized consequences for the extensive coral reefs that encircle and protect these islands. Invasive predators such as rats -- which feed on bird eggs, chicks, and even adults birds -- are estimated to have decimated seabird populations within 90 percent of the world's temperate and tropical island groups, but until now the extent of their impact on surrounding coral reefs wasn't known.

Tropical oceans teem with the dazzle and flash of colorful reef fishes and contain far more species than the cold ocean waters found at high latitudes. This well-known 'latitudinal diversity gradient' is one of the most famous patterns in biology, and scientists have puzzled over its causes for more than 200 years. [...]

I wondered if Dr.Ho has found it necessary to add UVB lighting for the frogs? We had some in a vivarium and they declined , I think, because we didn't provide the right UV light for them. Nothing else changed, but they gradually stopped eating , and having other herps, I'm conscious of the right lighting. PattyArne says:
I try to find some web site for aquarium shops in chatuchak marked.Ian says:
I was just wondering something. I’ve read in many articles, that the nitrifying bacteria won’t survive acid waters. So if I want to replicate this particular biotope, how would it be possible without affecting the nitrifying bacteria in the filter? Would the bacteria in the filter survive a ph of 3 or 4? Also, the water in these biotopes are very calm with very low movement. In the aquarium world how can we achieve a healthy ecosystem without strong movement of water?? In order to keep a healthy tank I believe one of the most important aspects is to keep moving the water. Many unhealthy tanks can produce cyanobacteria precisely because the lack of water movement, so can we possible archive good results with slow water movements? Thank you for any possible reply!Rizky Muhammad Ihsan says:

Great write up I have been trying to find some Taeniamia zosterophora and this is the only information I could find on them. Have you ever seen them available or know what the going price for them would be? Thanks again.Jo says:
It always made me sad to see people equate a betta's happiness with bubble nests! They really do not mean a fish is happy. They are purely a sign of sexual maturity and a readiness to breed!
