New video just arrived via snail(fish) mail for you! 🐌📬
Salmon snailfish are deeply charming with their glossy salmon-colored bodies and their tiny PacMan mouths. Those wiggly fins on their chinny-chin-chins are used to taste the seafloor so that they can hunt for crunchy crustaceans like shrimps, amphipods, and crabs. The little mouth, the frilly fins—what’s not to love about the salmon snailfish?
Recently, I commissioned the incredibly talented and wonderful @anthemisarts to draw this scene of Merdrew and Neil eating ice cream together from Into The Deep 🧜♂️

Oh you know we’re suckers for lumpfish!! Lumpfish may look otherworldly, in part because they love to cling on: Modified pelvic fins form a round suction cup that helps lumpfish stick around and save energy. In fact, their family name “Cyclopteridae” comes from Greek words for "circle" and "fin”!
Lumpfish are so-named for their ridged, bumpy texture created by fleshy knobs known as tubercles.
Denizens of the deep in adulthood, lumpfish migrate to shallower waters to breed, leaving little clumps of lumps to develop in warmer temperatures before returning to more frigid depths.
Find out more about lumpfish and check them out for yourself in our latest exhibition “Into the Deep: Exploring Our Undiscovered Ocean”!
Hi I'm a mess!! Screaming crying throwing up etc etc because LOOK WHAT @chellseedsarah on twitter MADE ME 😭💙 It's Merdrew, Neil and Sunshine from Into The Deep!!!
I am absolutely floored by the amount of work and detail put into this. The Georgia Aquarium logo on Andrew's shirt? The shark tooth earring? The sea glass necklace, made with a real piece of sea glass? The tiny knife in Andrew's armband?? Neil's little black stone necklace??? I am in awe.
Thank you for such a lovely surprise and a thoughtful gift!! I love it so much!!!
