Blue on blue: Baby fish schooling in the Larval Fish Exhibit• • •Our aquarists have been toiling quietly behind the scenes in our Quincy Animal Care Center, and with our partner Roger Williams University, raising several species of popular reef fishes. This entails making sure the parents are healthy and happy enough to spawn or lay eggs, collecting the eggs and then hatching them, and then raising the larvae (and their teeny tiny food). We’re happy to report that we’ve had some great successes—as you can see in the larval fish exhibit! Someday these fish may graduate to the Giant Ocean Tank.#VisitorPicture by : @myexpressionexpress #fish #homegrown #newenglandaquarium #aquaculture #babies #babyfish #ocean #animals #backtoschool #schooling #grunts #blues #boston #familyfun #liveblue #oceansoflearning (at New England Aquarium) -- source link
