Killifish, the cockroaches of the water:

"The large populations of killifish and the genetic diversity of the species have enabled it to evolve and survive in areas where other species have died out, including Superfund sites. [...] have evolved resistance against levels of dioxins, PCBs, mercury, and other industrial chemicals up to 8,000 times higher than the previously estimated lethal dose."

Time for updated with the new influx of users from dysfunctional Twitter.

I'm a Research Scientist working for Fisheries and Oceans () based out of the Canada Centre for Inland Waters in Burlington. My group is responsible for lower trophic (microbes, phytoplankton, and diets of forage ). This supports recreational & commercial fisheries and ecosystem health in the lakes.

A Collette's Pygmy Halfbeak (Dermogenys collettei) spotted in the stream at Windsor Nature Park, Singapore, on 8 March 2023. A small fish that, like the very common Stripe-nosed halfbeak seen in mangroves, have a long lower jaw and a very short upper one.

Yeah, there is something fishy going on! Another grouper. Here in Florida we are known for these beautiful fish...I know right now we are known for crap politics, but I have to live here due to Hubby's job, so I am looking on the bright side as much as I can! Eyes on the ocean....ahhhhh

A Stripe-nosed Halfbeak (Zenarchopterus buffonis) spotted at Pasir Ris Park, Singapore, on 26 Feb 2023. A common fish often seen in mangrove areas.

It is a small fish (20 cm long) with a very long lower jaw that ends with a white spot at the tip. The upper jaw is quite short and ends just after the eyes. It feeds on food on the water surface and is usually found seen together in groups.

one reason EVs won't reduce harmful pollution

Globally, tires emit ~3 million tons of particles annually & create another 3 million tons of particles from road surfaces

How do fish survive in the deep ocean?

Last week, scientists filmed a fish swimming at a depth of more than 8km (27,000ft), setting a new record for the deepest ever fish documented by humans.

At the bottom of the Mariana Trench there is 1,086 bars of pressure, the equivalent of 100 elephants standing on your head.
