We’ve been working with our colleagues at the Monterey Bay Aquarium to help them bring the deep sea to land in a new exhibition, ‘Into the Deep: Exploring Our Undiscovered Ocean’. When you visit, you’ll encounter some of the most unique and rarely seen animals ever featured in an aquarium exhibition.
You've seen MBARI's Top 10 deep-sea animals ( • MBARI's Top 10 deep-se... ), but we wondered, what are Monterey Bay Aquarium's favorites? So here they are the Aquarium’s top ten favorite deep-sea animals-at least for this video!
“Into the Deep” opened on April 9,2022. We hope you get a chance to visit and see these fabulous animals for yourself!

REQUEST: A series about the detail anatomy of these amazing animals (e.g. isopod mouth) you never get the context of the complexity and mechanics of how they work.

Also: Imagine being a random crab or thing on the bottom of the ocean, suddenly you're being put in a top 10.

Most species didn't make it to the top 10. You can tell that the selection was tough.

The Japanese spider crab and the other giant bug sound interesting and amazing and kind of horrifying all at once. I think I'd like to see them in person. It's fascinating what animals are in the ocean that we aren't even aware of.

Jellyfish of all types are my favorite underwater creatures. They come in such a variety of shapes, sizes, colors, and have such a variety of unique adaptations; one of my favorites being the fact that the Australian Box Jellyfish has functioning eye clusters, that have the ability to see rudimentarily in color!

It's a fantastic exhibit that I HIGHLY recommend to anyone able to go! Unfortunately there were people using flashes on their cameras when I went, despite the signs; I felt bad for the beautiful creatures. Unbelievably fascinating, especially when you get to see their true size in person, since on video there's nothing to relatively compare

It sure will be awesome and unique in the world to be able to see this exhibition. i'm wondering about a technical detail: will the pressure in the aquarium to some extent match the pressure in the deep watercolumn and, when not, will the movements of the animals differ? Since i'm living on the other side of the globe, opportunities for me to visit the exhibition will be very few. But i'm sure to watch any video documentary about it on youtube! The MBA is a unique and awesome aquarium experience (i saw a documentary about your -see grass- kelp section).

I’m not an expert at all, but I went and visited the aquarium for the first time just recently, and they were talking about how there are these depressurization chambers that are slowly adjusted over long periods of time so the creature can adjust. The new into the deep exhibit had a tank where you could pet some giant isopods, and I never even dreamed that was possible.

@5:20 starts talking about the Siphonophore as a collection of zooids as a foreign idea but we as humans have millions of individual cells of different types acting to create a single organism. It's a lot more close to home than you might think. And at 5:55 he claims he's breaking new ground by talking/showing siphonophores? uhh, what? You must be looking for funding with this video because this is a very common marine animal that we've known about for a long time.

The Japanese spider crab is the largest extant arthropod today. Its legspan is 10 feet long, hence why it's so terrifying. But it was quite a gentleman, cleaning himself after poshly eating bits of a whale carcass.

I can't STAND isopods 😫, however; the face of these (8:10) remind me of 'someone' (not... real), who I love; Brak, in Space Ghost Coast to Coast. BTW; the one which I REALLY, REALLY have an 'ick' factor over; the Cymothoa exigua (if you're slightly familiar with Latin, 'exingua' means, 'take it out', ama what these do, it's they're remove a fish's tongue, and... move in there, as a tongue 'substitute', whereby as the fish eats, they're able to nibble (I thank goodness I've NEVER been any kind of seafood - or animal - eater in my life😫)
