Chapter 46 Fish Schools Migrate South
It was night, after trading the mouse spot, Xiang Yang went for a walk by the beach.
The plankton floating on the sea exudes sapphire blue fluorescence, like a path paved on the water, which looks particularly beautiful, and like a bridge coming out of a fairy tale town, reflecting each other with the stars in the sky.
When Xiang Yang saw this scene, his heart trembled, the cold snap was coming.
Whenever cold snaps come, dinoflagellates and diatoms will float on the sea surface and reproduce in large numbers. When the number reaches a sufficient number, algal blooms will even form, causing a large area of seawater around to change color.
Both dinoflagellates and diatoms are the lowest producers in the ocean. They are the main food source for small fish, shrimp, crab, and shellfish, and they are also the main releaser of oxygen in the ocean.
When the cold snap comes, tropical sea fish will migrate south to the equator. Without harvesters, dinoflagellates and diatoms will multiply crazily until the recovery of all things in the next spring before continuing to feed the ocean.
Fishing will be difficult in the next few months! Xiang Yang squinted his eyes. Most of the sea fish in the north that adapt to the cold climate will not swim south because of the colder climate, but the sea fish that grow in the South China Sea are suitable for high temperature. As the climate cools, they continue to migrate south to warmer waters.
But it shouldn't have a big impact on me. Xiang Yang's hunting ground can even extend to the deep sea area with a depth of 10,000 meters. In that bottomless sea area, the sun can't shine at all, and it is cold all year round. climate.
Xiang Yang took off his coat and wanted to see the seabed.
Before entering the sea, Xiang Yang suddenly stopped. He saw a starfish with five tentacles lying on a rock in front of him.
Starfish, also known as star fish, is shaped like a five-pointed star, and its body surface is covered with spines. It feeds on slow-moving shellfish and crabs. Every tiny crystal on the spiny skin of its body is its eye.
Xiang Yang swam to the edge of the reef and broke the starfish off the reef.
The tentacle regeneration ability of starfish is the strongest among all animals. If any one of its tentacles is torn off, it can quickly grow a new one.
Some people may think that its ability is similar to that of a gecko, but in fact it is much more miraculous than a gecko, because not only the part of the starfish that was torn off will quickly re-grow, but the torn-off part of the starfish can also quickly re-grow a starfish.
Starfish is a very important link in the marine food chain. It preys on sea rainbows attached to the reef, but it has almost no food value. Few marine life, including humans, will prey on starfish.
However, the medicinal value of starfish is extremely high. It has the effect of calming and calming the nerves. It can also be used to treat various stomach problems. The most important thing is that it can also eliminate the traces of scars to a certain extent.
Catch some and go back to see if the pharmacy takes them. Xiang Yang centered on the reef and searched carefully along the surroundings.
Starfish is a group of organisms, whether it is on a steep rock or on the bottom of a shallow sea, starfish can often be found. Finding one means that there are usually a large group of them around.
Going down to the bottom of the sea, Xiang Yang did not see any traces of a large group of starfish living.
Xiang Yang turned his head and looked at the reef behind him. Starfish often have the habit of breaking away from the group and crawling from the bottom of the sea to the reef to breathe. It seems that the caught starfish wanted to climb to the reef to breathe and temporarily left the group.
If there was only one starfish, Xiang Yang would not be interested. He just let go and threw the caught starfish back into the sea, and then continued to swim into the deep sea.
After swimming south, Xiang Yang, who was swimming on the bottom of the sea, suddenly stopped.
In a relatively barren sea area in the past, Xiang Yang found a large number of tropical fish migrating south.
The densely packed sea fish gather together, and it is impossible to count how many there are, and it is impossible to distinguish how many species there are.
All kinds of good-looking, hard-to-see, and strange-shaped sea fish are all swimming in the south direction.
From time to time, ferocious marine predators rampage among the fish schools, swallowing a large number of small fish in one bite.
However, these are not the point.
The focus is on the migration of fish. Those swimming crabs and big lobsters that feed on small fish and scallops are also chasing after the fish and moving south together.
In the past, the giant lobsters that were seen as dragons but never saw their tails can be seen everywhere now.
Swimming crabs even lined up to form a straight line with no end in sight.
Hey, how many fucking swimming crabs are there? Xiang Yang stared straight at the scene. These swimming crabs dispatched by the whole group changed their timid temperament in the past, and they are really rampant on the bottom of the sea, and they are not afraid of people at all.
Xiang Yang swam to a swimming crab that was alone but weighed at least half a catty with a small ball. Tear off the fish meat bit by bit and send it to your own mouthpiece.
Seeing the giant Xiang Yang swimming over, the swimming crab was not afraid at all, not only did not abandon the caught sea fish and ran away quickly, but swaggered at Xiang Yang with its big pincers.
Some swimming crabs were attracted by Xiang Yang, and turned their marching direction into an arc to outflank Xiang Yang.
Xiang Yang was stunned, did the other party include himself in the recipe?
In front of a huge group, apart from terrifying creatures like whales and giant squids, any personal power is insignificant.
Xiang Yang didn't let those swimming crabs surround him, picked up the swimming crab that was as big as a leather ball in front of him, rushed out of the encirclement and quickly fled towards the distance.
After rushing out of the encirclement, Xiang Yang swam towards Qinglong Bend at full speed without any hesitation.
With so many swimming crabs, it would be considered a fisherman not to catch them at this time.
Xiang Yang, who swam back to Qinglong Bend, climbed directly onto his father's small fishing boat, threw the swimming crab the size of a leather ball in his hand into the cabin, and without a word, untied the reins that fixed the fishing boat and turned the fishing boat to the south Draw in that direction.
After the fishing boat rowed to a position that no one on the shore could see, Xiang Yang repeated his old trick, jumping off the bottom of the sea and dragging the whole fishing boat towards the south.
Soon Xiang Yang caught up with the group of migrating fish, and also saw the group of domineering swimming crabs.
It's mine, it's all mine. Xiang Yang went back and forth between the sea surface and the bottom of the sea quickly, and every time he went back and forth, he could catch more than four or two swimming crabs, or a fresh big lobster.
Swimming crabs can be seen everywhere, and they are easier to catch than the swimming crabs in the farm. In less than two hours, the cabin of Xiangfu's small fishing boat was filled with swimming crabs, and the waterline was close to a very dangerous value.
Xiang Yang is still not satisfied, this kind of opportunity only comes twice a year, one time is when the cold snap comes and the swimming crabs move southward, and the other time is when everything recovers and the swimming crabs move northward.
