367. Terrific clean shrimp
There are a lot of seabirds that fly back in the evening, and there are still a large number of them.
According to rough estimates, there are also five or six thousand of these birds, mainly small birds, and only about a thousand old birds that can't fly.
The autumn evenings were already cold, and the little birds followed the old birds ashore and gathered on the beach to warm up, still shivering with cold.
Shaq shook his head and said, "The short-tailed shearwater came with a cold snap, and since they chose to migrate at this time, it means that the cold snap is coming soon, otherwise they won't be in a hurry to leave." When the cold snap arrives, they can't keep warm and will soon freeze to death. β
Qin Shiou touched Winnie's hair, and smiled confidently: "Don't worry, I have a way, we can let them survive this winter." β
Winnie looked at him expectantly, Shaq and the others looked incredulous, and said, "It's hard, boss, it's as hard as seeing Santa Claus on Halloween." If the short-tailed shearwaters could survive the cold winter, they would not have to make the arduous annual migration. β
Qin Shiou secretly said that of course Lao Tzu knows that it is difficult, but he can't make Winnie sad, right? No way, just rule it out.
Winnie seemed to know the reason for his promise, so she hugged his neck and said angrily, "If you can save these birds, I will wear a flight attendant uniform that night." β
As soon as he heard this, Qin Shiou's eyes suddenly lit up.
Compared with other Canadian girls, Winnie has to suffer a lot, such as 9 Qin Shiou has always wanted her to wear a flight attendant uniform when she is happy in the boudoir, but Winnie can always think of a reason to shirk, he has not experienced this happiness.
Now, when the opportunity came, Qin Shiou slapped his chest. Be sure to help these little shearwaters survive the winter.
After eating in the evening, Qin Shiou lay on the bed and controlled the sea god's consciousness to enter the fishing ground.
One into the sea. The first thing I saw was the new inhabitants of the seabed, a large school of beautiful translucent shrimp.
These small shrimp are busy nesting in the crevices of the reef on the seabed. Apparently to settle here, the body of the shrimp is very crystalline, with milky white stripes and violet spots on it, gorgeous and cute.
Qin Shiou looked at these clean shrimps, strictly speaking, they should not be called Peter Songyan shrimp. Pure Peterpine rock shrimp lives in the Caribbean waters of the Pacific Ocean, and the two sides are closely related, both are a kind of clean shrimp, similar in appearance and similar ability. Therefore, it is also called Peterpine rock shrimp, but it is not a tropical shrimp but a temperate shrimp.
After these little shrimp cleaned up the burrow, they lay down at the mouth of the burrow. They have a pair of long tentacles in front of their heads, and when they sway their bodies like this, the tentacles shake like some plankton on the bottom of the sea, and it is easy to attract marine fish that feed on them.
A few herrings slowly swam over, and they tentatively approached the Petersson Rock Shrimp, and the two sides approached. The shrimp crawled onto the fish, searched for the parasites on it, and dragged them out one by one.
Marine fish have parasites on them, but some of them have no effect on their lives. Will stay with them forever. Some are life-threatening, such as the rainbow trout of Qin Shiou that had anchorworms, which are very serious parasitic diseases.
If there were Peter pine rock shrimp in the fishing grounds at that time. Then there is no need for Qin Shiou to waste the energy of the sea god, don't look at the small size of Peter Songyan shrimp. It's the best at dealing with anchor worms.
Herrings also seem to know that these small shrimp are good for them, when they are close to their heads. The herring will open their gill covers on both sides in turn, and there is some decaying tissue in these places, and the Peterpine rock shrimp has a pair of sharp pincers that can be used like a scalpel to remove these things.
Qin Shiou searched for the relevant information of these clean shrimp in the afternoon, and some research materials said that the reason why the marine fish will open the gill cover or expose the parasite when the clean shrimp is close is because the clean shrimp can release some hormones to make signals to induce the marine fish to make cooperative actions.
However, these studies are only conjectures, and they did not specifically search for this hormone-like substance.
Now through the sea god consciousness, Qin Shiou knew that this was not the case, the clean shrimp did not release any substance at all, and the reason why the sea fish cooperated was simply because of nature.
Like humans, marine fish love life and want to live a better life.
In addition to the Peterpine rock shrimp, there are also lewman shrimp that follow the excrement of the short-tailed shearwater.
The molster shrimp in the Atlantic waters of North America is the yellow-backed mole shrimp, a small shrimp with a pale yellow hue growing on the back, and they are also the little doctors of the fishing grounds.
It's quite interesting, compared to the Peter Pine Rock Shrimp sitting in the museum, the yellow-backed lewd shrimp is a barefoot doctor, and they will constantly swim at the bottom of the fishing ground, looking for those marine fish with parasites or injured tissues.
These yellow-backed mole shrimp are very fast on the bottom of the sea, and when they find that there are parasites in the marine fish, they will approach them and take the initiative to remove these parasites.
The ocean has its mild side, whether it is the yellow-backed lewd shrimp or the Peter pine rock shrimp, they are weak and have no ability to protect themselves, but relying on this kind of healing, almost all the sea fish are not embarrassed by them, and no fish will prey on these small shrimps.
Of course, if they come across crabs and scallops, then it is another matter, crustaceans and arthropods are their natural enemies.
Qin Shiou injected the energy of the sea god when he touched these small shrimps, and he hoped that these small shrimps could survive in the fishing ground for a long time, as long as these clean shrimp prospered, then his fishing ground would not have to worry about parasitic diseases.
But this is difficult, when these clean shrimp find that there is no mineral phosphorus in the fishing grounds, they will gradually leave, because if they do not leave, they will die, and the mineral phosphorus is one of the substances necessary for their survival.
In this way, Qin Shiou has to find a way to save those little short-tailed shearwaters, there are five or six thousand small short-tailed shearwaters living in the fishing grounds, and the excrement is enough to attract these clean shrimp to stay.
In addition to cleaning shrimp, there is another type of shrimp that has been attracted, that is, mouth shrimp crickets, which Canadians like to call mantis shrimp, and domestic people call them skin shrimp.
Speaking of Pipi shrimp, what domestic people think of is the kind of shrimp that is alive with a translucent shell and is cooked red, but the Pipi shrimp in Qin Shiou's fishery are not these two goods.
The skin shrimp that Qin Shiou saw were extremely colorful all over his body, and when they were quiet and motionless, he even thought that this was a piece of beautiful reef!
This kind of skin shrimp is called the pigeon mantis shrimp, the beautiful Cheng dΓΉ ranks among the top ten in the ocean, the whole body is covered with heavy armor, and there seems to be a cloud brocade embroidery on the carapace, blue, red and yellow blend, which is called a beautiful.
As usual, the energy of the sea god is fed into the passertail mantis shrimp, Qin Shiou hopes that they can all survive in the fishing grounds, and the pipi shrimp is a good hand at cleaning up marine debris, especially against dead scallops.
Don't look at the mouth shrimp crickets often look lazy, really start to do that is the absolute master, they are divided into two categories, one is called the piercing type of mouth shrimp cricket and the other is called the crushed type of mouth shrimp cricket.
If it is a crushed mouth shrimp cricket, the appendage in front of the body is like a small hammer, and even the scallop shell and crab shell can be broken when the hammer is knocked down, which is extremely powerful! (To be continued......)
