@serenepoppy14085 жыл бұрын
vlogbrothers The “most” qualifier is SO TRUE; even home aquarium hobbyists have to learn about a bunch of not-so-friendly organisms. Bristle worms are a pretty gnarly example - they get 10’+ (3m+) long and can bore through rock! Seeing their interactions with all the “good guys” too, like micro-crustaceans/invertebrates, isopods, copepods, etc. It’s like collecting Pokémon IRL! It’s such an amazing hobby, as it combines chemistry, biology, ecology, and so much more. Incredible learning experience!

In middle school my science teacher showed us Monterey Bay’s kelp forest web cam as an example of a biome. I returned to that site repeatedly to watch and eventually found the otter cam as well! After haggling with my parents to let my computer time coincide with the otter and kelp forest feeding times I set alarms on my watch and basically spent the entirety of my summer tuning in to watch. While I have never physically been to Monterey Bay aquarium, it holds a tender place in my heart and this video was an awesome look at it. Thank you!

About every year, the Monterey Bay Aquarium has a Free Resident week, where people who live in the area can get in for free. My favorite thing to do, is go to the Open Ocean exhibit, take a seat on the second floor benches, and just chill for a while. I’ve been in that aquarium almost every year of my life, been all up and down the both floors and both buildings, and I still manage to take at least 30 photos every time I go. Because, no matter how jaded I might be about the rest of my life, I can always find something beautiful and incredible there, something that inspires wonder and intrigue. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve grinned like an idiot watching the penguins hop around, or inadvertently let my mouth drop open while craning my neck to see the very top of that kelp forest exhibit during a feeding. I’m glad you got to experience this place, and the rest of Monterey’s ocean, and I thank you for helping me enjoy it all over again through someone else’s eyes. That poster of the depressed-looking otter makes me laugh every time, though, lmao

Can we pause to have an open and honest discussion about the pros/cons of aquariums in general? I understand that many aquariums do great work in educating the public about the importance of marine preservation, and serve to inspire youth in particular. However, even aquariums of far higher quality than most are motivated by profit at the end of the day. I do not believe they always have the best interest of the animals in mind, as evidenced by the fact that the Monterey Bay Aquarium has kept and led to the death of at least one great white shark in the past - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h7OSe693xODbmqc.html

Millions, if not billions of dogs have died in captivity. Same with cats. Recently, my shrimp tank crashed and all five shrimp died. GW sharks are notoriously difficult to keep in captivity. The MB aquarium kept one alive the longest. GW sharks are on the decline. Yes, it is due to humans, but not the MB aquarium. If we want these creatures to survive long term, it might be important that we keep know how to them in tanks. The world isn't perfect. Maybe it should be, but it isn't. If you want to complain about that, then do so. But there is no discussion about keeping endagered things to be had. We NEED figure it out. The people running/working at the aquarium share your concerns and are infinitely more knowledgeable than you about them. The fact that it is for profit just means there is more money. I wouldn't doubt that the for profit salt water aquarium industry has done more yo advance the understanding of reefs than the entire scientific community. Why? Sheer size. And once your car's exhausted, your hot water showers and your power to run the device you are on now cause the oceans to warm and the reefs to die, you will still be able to enjoy them at the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

the monterey bay aquarium is one of the places I feel happiest. I grew up near it and it's ruined all other aquariums for me. there's something so so special about it.

OMG! Next time you should invite Tom Scott on these sorts of trips. Seeing you guys nerd out would be a trip!
