#Reef Aquariums Market

[wishfishy]

When I first heard that a new Endless Ocean was going to be released, I was incredibly excited. Just absolutely over-the-moon excited. You see, Endless Ocean 2: Blue World (also called Endless Ocean 2: Adventures of the Deep) is one of my favourite games of all time. Scratch that: it is my favourite game. It was far from perfect, but I loved it dearly and happily sank hundreds if not thousands of hours into it.

EO2 is a diving game for the wii that was released in 2010, and I have never been able to find a game quite like it. The main story was a bit cheesy, but charming and engaging, with a bevy of likeable if occasionally one-note characters, and the game itself had surprising depths (diving pun fully intended). The game had 12 different diving maps in 6 locations and while the specific areas were fictitious, they were based on very real places (the South Pacific, Mediterranean Sea, Red Sea, Arctic and Antarctic Oceans, as well as a freshwater river in the Amazon) and this was reflected in the species found in each area, with a few exceptions here and there.  You could explore shallow coral reefs, a sunken castle, ancient temples, abyssal depths, a kelp forest, sandy beaches, riverbanks, hidden coves with murals, and much more. You also had a small private island as a hub location, a personal reef you could decorate, and a public aquarium which you could fill with any of the non-legendary species you discovered.

Speaking of which, the game featured 340 different species of marine and freshwater fish, sharks, rays, marine mammals, penguins, shore birds, reptiles, crustaceans, cephalopods and other invertebrates. Some of these also had different models for young or different genders. You could find truly miniscule species that most other diving games overlook entirely in zoom-spots (such as gobies and nudibranchs), and you could interact with most by feeding, touching or even riding in the case of large marine life. And on top of this you could also find legendary creatures, which could be individuals of extant species with unusual colouring or size, or even extinct species, and could be exceedingly hard to find but entirely rewarding.

This is already getting to be much too long but on top of all this you could customize your diver character, buy things for your island hub, decorate and populate a private reef to propagate and release fish, create various aquarium exhibits, discover a great many side-quests, upgrade equipment, take and sell photographs, heal sick animals, search for and sell salvage, find collectable coins, train dolphin partners, take requests for guided tours, dolphin shows, salvage and photos, dodge or placate aggressive sharks, and more that I am probably forgetting. It’s been a while since I’ve played the game, as I no longer have a wii and don’t have the first clue on how to emulate games on my PC. All this is to say that this game was something special, and I have never been able to find anything remotely close to it. And seeing as how the last one was released almost 15 years ago, I had long given up hope for an Endless Ocean 3.

And then lo and behold, a trailer dropped from out of nowhere for Endless Ocean Luminous! And it was releasing in a month! Holy Shit! What!? Yes!

But alas, the more information came out about the game, the more that excitement started to wane. A focus on multiplayer? Procedural generation? Only one map? The only character being an AI that sounded like all those awful tiktok voices? To be clear, I wasn’t expecting Luminous to be the next GoTY. I wasn’t even expecting it to be an exact replica of EO2, or continue the storyline. If it had even a fraction of what I liked about the previous game I was going to be one happy camper. I assumed that the marketing was focusing on the multiplayer aspect instead of the single-player story, that hopefully the procedurally generated map was exclusive to that multiplayer. Surely the single player mode would extend past what little was shown in the trailers. Some things seemed promising, such as an advertised 500+ species, and even more prehistoric marine life. But again, alas, what I have seen since the release is the barest and palest reflection of what I enjoyed about the previous game. I could understand cutting some content, such as the dolphin training and shows, considering the controversy of cetaceans in captivity. But it seems like there is no aquarium, no central hub of any type, no characters beyond the aforementioned AI and a single faceless diver, salvage reduced to a single click, an incredibly reduced story consisting mostly of scanning fish, no ability to feed or interact with fish and fish behaviour also seems to be quite reduced. At least photography still appears to be in the game, though its unclear to what point. Are there still photo requests? The ability for some critters to swim along with or attach to your diver looks cute at least. But everything I’ve watched so far just feels so… lifeless. Empty. As if the whole game was AI generated, which I’m at least %75 sure isn’t the case.

But I’m left kind of baffled by the direction that this game was taken in. I’ve been trying to find any information about it’s development with little to no success. Why the focus on multiplayer to the exclusion of a single player story beyond the bare minimum? What lead to the choice to have a single, procedurally generated map instead of separate, smaller, but more scientifically accurate maps? Or even a single smaller but purposefully designed map? Was this game more like the previous games at any point in its conception or development or was it always intended to be such a departure?

lionfish (genus pterois): a danger to atlantic coral reefs

lionfish are very popular aquarium fish and are easily recognizable by their large, venomous spines, fan-like fins and distinct colouration. they are native to the southern pacific and indian oceans.

lionfish are invasive in southeastern US and caribbean coastal waters. sightings began in southern florida in 1985 and they were documented as established in the early 2000s. their diet consists of many ecologically important species of fish, such as algae-eating parrotfish that prevent seaweed from overtaking coral reefs. the lionfish population in the US continues to increase due to a lack of natural predators and the fact that they reproduce year-round, with females laying around 2 million eggs per year (or about 10,000-30,000 eggs every four days). they also compete for food against snappers and groupers, who are already struggling against overfishing.

one way to help control the invasive lionfish population is to eat them. lionfish are 100% safe for human consumption, as the only venomous part of the fish is the spines themselves. support markets that provide lionfish, or you could even go lionfish hunting yourself! lionfish is one of the best options for food in the US right now, since they're harming the ecosystem and there's an over abundance of them. this is a rare case where we want to overfish this species to extinction (at least in the US).

Random OC ask, summer game! ⛱️☀️🌊.

What your OCs or favorite characters would be doing on a beach? In case they absolutely can't go on a beach, what other summer activity do they enjoy?

Bonus level - once answered, pass this ask to 3 other people's inboxes!

Oh YES here we go!!

Illithid OCs Larik, Mar’reen, and Xo’to!

Larik - Larik is a total beach bum, you ave to DRAG him kicking and screaming off a beach. He’s an avid surfer, wind-sailor, and occasional sailor! He enjoys diving in shallows and reefs for little treasures and trinkets, saying hi to turtles and picking up discarded fishing gear or trash. He’s very athletic, so swimming and other beach activities are his go-to, but when he wants to relax, he’ll pick a shady spot and enjoy those fruity drinks with the little umbrellas in them. He’ll munch on whole coconuts too.

Without a beach nearby, he spends his time painting or drawing, or going to the next best thing in the form of rivers and lakes. Or he’ll go bother his favorite bookish Illithid and his twins~ (aka Vlassk aka @the-illithid-archivist)

Mar’reen - Mar is your attractive milf lounging on the beach under an umbrella in a bikini and sipping a pinacoloda; sunhat and sheer shawl skirt and all. She enjoys the sound of the waves and salty breeze on her skin. As she cared for her squidlings though, she was much more attentive and would often play with or build sandcastles with her kids. She rarely got int he water, but enjoyed walking just in the shore where the water could run over her feet. She’ll enjoy a good book, some music, or check out the shops and handsome beach-goers for her viewing pleasure~

With the beach not being an option, she’s at home relaxing on her rare day off from the hospital, or going on a nice, leisurely walk to window shop. In sumertime she especially enjoys going out and indulging a bit, and will often opt for the public pool to get her sun and lounge-chair time!

Xo’to - Xo’to is like their mother in that they enjoy just hanging out int he shade, though far more covered up for how easily they dry out and burn. They love getting in the water though, and love taking long walks up and down the beach just enjoying the sea breeze and collecting pretty shells. Even as an adult they are still happily building more refined sand castles, or browsing the seaside market, or looking out at the ocean on the pier! They almost never go tot he beach alone though, it’s far too boring to do that! If they stay till night and the energy is high, they might dance out under the stars.

Outside the beach, Xo’to has a somewhat on-and-off relationship with summer. If it’s too hot, they stay in and just relax at home with movies, studying, or watching movies. When the weather permits, they go out with a parasol to ice cream shops, go shopping, visit public gardens, or maybe go to the aquarium. Either way, they always visit some sort of sweets shop, and will go out to visit friends and family. Maybe they'll go bug their boyfriend to come out shopping with them and get ice cream together~

And I tag...whoever wants to do this XD

Market Overview

Underwater hotels, characterized by their submerged guest rooms with panoramic views of marine life, represent a luxurious and exclusive form of accommodation. The market for these hotels has been expanding as consumers seek out unique and immersive travel experiences. According to recent reports, the global underwater hotels market was valued at approximately $400 million in 2023 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 15% over the next decade.

Key Drivers of Market Growth

Several factors are contributing to the growth of the underwater hotels market:

Advances in reinforced glass, pressure-resistant materials, and environmental controls have significantly improved the feasibility and comfort of underwater accommodations.

3. Increased Interest in Marine Conservation: The growing awareness of marine conservation and the desire to experience and support oceanic environments have fueled interest in underwater hotels. Many of these establishments incorporate sustainable practices and contribute to marine conservation efforts.

3. Technological Limitations: While technology has advanced, maintaining underwater structures and ensuring guest safety and comfort remain significant challenges. Ongoing research and innovation are required to address these issues effectively.

Despite these challenges, the future of the underwater hotels market looks promising.

Innovative Techniques For Treating Ich In Reef Tanks Without Harming Invertebrates

Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, commonly known as ich or white spot disease, is a notorious parasite that plagues both freshwater and marine aquariums. It presents a unique challenge in reef tanks, where the balance between eradicating the parasite and preserving the delicate invertebrates and corals must be carefully managed. This blog explores innovative techniques for treating ich in reef tanks without harming the invertebrates that make these ecosystems so vibrant.

Understanding the Challenge

Ich appears as small, white cysts on the fish's body and fins, caused by an external parasite. The lifecycle of ich includes stages where it is immune to most treatments, making eradication particularly challenging in environments sensitive to chemical treatments, like reef tanks. Traditional methods often involve medications that can harm invertebrates or disrupt the biological balance, necessitating the development of innovative, reef-safe treatment options.

Innovative Treatment Strategies

Quarantine and Environmental Management

The cornerstone of preventing ich outbreaks is a robust quarantine protocol for all new fish. A separate quarantine tank allows for observation and treatment of new arrivals without exposing the main tank's inhabitants to potential risks. Simultaneously, maintaining optimal water quality and stable environmental conditions in the reef tank can bolster the immune systems of the inhabitants, making them less susceptible to ich infestations.

UV Sterilization

UV sterilizers are a powerful tool in the fight against ich, capable of killing the parasite during its free-swimming stage without introducing harmful chemicals into the tank. By passing water through a UV chamber, these devices disrupt the DNA of the parasites, preventing them from reproducing. This method is highly effective and safe for invertebrates, making it an excellent option for reef tank owners.

Ozone Treatment

Ozone treatment is another innovative method that can reduce the load of free-swimming ich parasites in the water. Ozone works by oxidizing organic and inorganic materials, including parasites, enhancing water clarity and quality. However, it must be used with caution and precise control, as ozone can be harmful to both fish and invertebrates if not correctly managed.

Temperature and Salinity Manipulation

Slightly altering the water temperature or salinity can stress the ich parasite without harming the tank's fish and invertebrates. For instance, gradually increasing the tank's temperature can speed up the parasite's lifecycle, making it more susceptible to treatment methods. Meanwhile, careful adjustments to the tank's salinity can exploit the parasite's lower tolerance to salinity changes, effectively disrupting its lifecycle. These methods require careful monitoring to avoid stressing the tank's inhabitants.

Biological Control

Introducing natural predators of the ich parasite into the tank can be an effective and natural way to control outbreaks. Certain fish and invertebrate species are known to feed on ich parasites and their eggs, helping to reduce the population of the parasite in the tank. This method should be approached with care, ensuring the introduced species are compatible with the existing reef tank ecosystem.

Rally Pro and Other Reef-Safe Medications

There are now medications on the market designed specifically to be safe for reef tanks. Products like Rally Pro from Ruby Reef offer targeted treatment against ich while being safe for corals, invertebrates, and other sensitive tank inhabitants. It's crucial to follow dosing instructions carefully and monitor the tank closely during treatment.

Conclusion

Treating ich in reef tanks requires a careful, innovative approach to ensure the health and safety of all inhabitants. By combining quarantine practices, environmental management, UV sterilization, ozone treatment, temperature and salinity manipulation, biological control, and reef-safe medications, it is possible to effectively manage ich outbreaks without compromising the delicate balance of reef ecosystems. These innovative techniques represent a significant step forward in the hobby, allowing aquarists to maintain vibrant, healthy reef tanks even in the face of challenging conditions like ich infestations.
