Chapter 172: Seaweed Boat
"There are fewer fish!"
Tang Hai observed in the sea for a while, and finally sighed lightly.
The total tonnage of nine killer whales is about 60 tons, and the total tonnage of four big-fin whales is about 100 tons, which adds up to 160 tons, and the tonnage of four percent of the food every day has to be eaten more than six tons, and this month it is almost 200 tons of fish!
Moreover, these guys eat real fish, with tight flesh, far from being a parallel trade like sail jellyfish, and the big fin whale will eat a lot of floating algae when swallowed, and it will also bring indirect losses.
Tang Hai, who has always been open-minded and cheerful, sat in the water, and his white belly slammed into his arms, but it didn't attract his attention......
It wasn't until the white belly bumped into Tang Hai twice in a row that Tang Hai reacted, stretched out his hand and gently scratched the white belly, thinking about how to extricate himself.
"200 tons of fish, although it is 400,000 catties...... But if you think about it, it's only 200 cubic meters of fish! That kind of 100-square-meter house, as long as it is stacked 2 meters high, there are 200 tons, which doesn't seem to be a lot......"
Tang Hai comforted himself in a low voice, but as soon as the figure of 400,000 catties came out, he couldn't comfort himself.
The leopard shark was comfortably scratched, flicked its big tail, broke free, and then swam into the seaweed jungle.
When Tang Hai heard the sound of rustling, he saw more than a dozen leopard sharks popping out of their heads.
These striped sharks together can't eat one percent of a big-fin whale, so even if there are a few more, Tang Hai doesn't care very much. In particular, these little animals are very shy, and people can't help but like them when they look at them.
The small leopard shark probably found this seaweed jungle and had a very high status in the group, and Tang Hai found that it seemed to be the leader.
Probably sensing that Tang Hai was sad, the white-bellied big tail flicked in front of Tang Hai and put down a stone scallop.
This thing is a Washington State specialty, and it's hard to say anything else, dahlia hasn't been caught much before. Stone scallops, spotted abalone, large clams, sea cucumbers, mussels...... These things are a lot! Especially with the recent formation of seaweed jungles, Tang Hai estimates that their numbers can skyrocket, because this is their food.
With the white belly taking the lead, Tang Hai's side was full of all kinds of beautiful shellfish for a while.
"Good. Good boy. Tang Hai hugged them one by one and scratched their bellies.
The rest were a little shy, but they had white bellies as the leading party, and they slowly dared to approach Tang Hai, and two of them were still very young. There were even zebra stripes on his body, and in the end, he simply didn't come out of Tang Hai's arms, and after a while, Tang Hai harvested two piles of poop......
"Bah, this is!" Tang Hai was looking at a bunch of shellfish, and suddenly found small things on the stone scallops given by the white belly, and the outer layer was a protective web like spider silk.
"It's a saury egg!"
Tang Hai is overjoyed!
It's like seeing the cycle of life.
The saury matures when it is about 25 cm long.
Because of their slender bodies, they are also one of the preferred foods for big-finned whales, and Tang Hai has nothing to do but turn them around and feed them to the killer whales. Their consumption is the largest......
In the cycle of marine life, this kind of fish, which is not taken seriously and everyone uses them as food, generally has the strongest ability to reproduce! In order to perpetuate the species, they can lay eggs almost all year round, by laying eggs on reefs or shellfish......
Tang Hai likes to eat saury very much.
Some people don't eat tilapia, saying that tilapia is dirty in the stomach, Tang Hai will laugh, and the stomach of saury looks dirty, if you want to make it purely delicious. That black film even had to be torn off.
Someone goes to the restaurant to order charcoal-grilled saury, and then they will suddenly scold, saying that the internal organs have not been removed, and it is too bitter. Tang Hai will also smile. Because that's how it's eaten, both in Japan and Takajima, there is a habit of eating saury to remember the bittersweet and bittersweet. Take Baodao as an example, in the most difficult period, Xiao Jiang had not copied the American 'community plan' to make the 'well-off plan', and many retired veterans were so poor that they were dingling. But at that time, the upper authorities still tried to meet the nutritional needs of these people. Half a saury a day for protein.
It can be said that saury is a God-given treasure for the people of Asia, not just for fish.
Tang Hai was very happy, and as soon as he was happy, he opened his ability and fed more than a dozen leopard sharks to his heart's content.
"As long as there is enough seaweed, there will be more microorganisms, and these small saury will not lack nutrients, and cetaceans eat a lot and provide a lot of poop, whether organic or inorganic, will eventually become the food ...... seaweed."
Tang Hai was swimming in the water with a bunch of shellfish, and more than a dozen leopard sharks followed behind, which was the habit of leopard sharks to follow the big brother who took the lead.
The giant whale defecates 200 tons, which can at least increase the various algae here by 400 tons, that is, 800,000 catties!
Plus the defecation of the rest of the fish......
Tang Hai used strange powers to check on the macrophyllous algae, the most exaggerated one has grown to 60 meters, and he doesn't know how big the one introduced by Jennifer can grow.
There are many various algae attached to the macrophylla.
People usually think of seaweed as the same thing, but there are several types of it, but in some ways it's pretty much the same.
They absorb ammonia, which is poop, and then they can also allow microorganisms to attach themselves to eat other things, and even they die and rot on their own, providing humus, and can also make many things eat, in addition to food, which is also a natural seawater purification system and wave buffering device.
Jennifer feeds the seaweed every day because its feeding organ is on the leaves.
The leaves are covered with air sacs, and once the roots are grasped, the seaweed can stretch out and increase the feeding area.
However, Tang Hai still has doubts, since Jennifer said that the roots of seaweed can help seaweed absorb the nutrients of the earth, then it must be possible, but Tang Hai knows that most of the seaweed has roots, but they are pseudo-roots, which only have a fixed effect, why would Jennifer say that......
Tang Hai swam to the bottom again, followed by a group of little guys.
The ocean current hits the seaweed, and the effect of the seaweed is equivalent to that of a reef and a shipwreck, causing nutrients to return!
"No, it should be more than that." Tang Hai used his ability to check the roots of the seaweed.
The dense light of life is associated with bacteria and parasitic microorganisms!
Covered with seaweed roots!
Not only do these things 'eat' the roots of the seaweed, but they also 'eat' the nutrients of the seabed!
As soon as they die, they are bringing the underlying nutrients to feed the seaweed!
"I see! Damn, this macrophyllous algae is really perverted, you can eat me, but let me eat it too......" Tang Hai looked at it in shock.
He slowly swam down, finally realizing how terrible Jennifer's submarine ranch plan was, once the seaweed jungle formed, no matter how many 'nutrients' there were in this place, in the end, unless humans took them away, these nutrients would basically be constant! It even turns the stuff in the sediment on the bottom of the sea into nutrients! No wonder Jennifer never worried about too many fish of a certain kind, only afraid of an accident on a tanker!
Tang Hai swam up, and suddenly found that a bunch of macrophyllous algae was broken by someone, and it was about ten meters gone.
Coincidentally, Tang Hai discovered more than ten places!
"Who moved my seaweed!"
That's angry!
Coincidentally, Tang Hai saw that the circles of seaweed above his head were neatly woven, about twenty square meters, like a small hovercraft.
Tang Hai slowly surfaced, thinking about who was so bored that he actually used seaweed to make a hovercraft! Can this thing carry people! And it's a sea vessel!
I saw a fat little guy lying lazily, furry, with a large scallop in the folds of his belly, holding a stone in his hand and smashing it on the shell......
