Sometimes I get jealous of my little bro and sis working at the Monterey Bay Aquarium – how cool is that? – and just want to join in on the rampant fish nerdicalism they must be enjoying every day. So here are my suggestions for water cooler/lunch table/apres ski chat today, guys: New sea anemone species discovered on whale fall (via) Also over on Cryptomundo is an update to a post I linked to a couple years ago regarding a mystery fish photograph on an old postcard: Mystery Fish Postcard Solved? Megamouth? You know when a megamouth gets involved, perhaps it’s time to step back and just admit sardines used…
