Deep-sea Divas - Mosquitofish and Sharp-spined Notothenia Take Center Stage!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness an extraordinary underwater spectacle as two distinct deep-sea divas steal the limelight. On one side, we have the Eastern mosquitofish, Gambusia holbrooki, showcasing her mature elegance while indulging in a delectable feast of mosquito larvae at the water's surface. With her impeccable taste for gourmet meals and undeniable charm, she effortlessly keeps those pesky bloodsuckers at bay. On the other side of this aquatic extravaganza is none other than Trematomus pennellii - a true marvel of nature! This sharp-spined notothenia resides in the mysterious depths between 0 and 700 meters below sea level. Living on the seafloor with an air of sophistication, he emerges during summer to spawn amidst a flurry of errant polychaetes. His refined palate also includes amphipods, fish eggs, and mollusks – truly a connoisseur among his deep-water peers. Together they represent an enchanting blend of beauty and resilience that thrives beneath icy Antarctic waters. These remarkable creatures remind us that even in the most extreme environments, life finds a way to flourish with grace and style. So let your imagination dive into this mesmerizing snapshot from Paulo de Oliveira's collection - where abyssal wonders meet underwater glamour!
