“Mysteries of the Deep” a Temporary Exhibit of Deepwater Animals of Monterey Canyon
“Mysteries of the Deep” a temporary exhibit of deepwater animals of Monterey Canyon. Charles Farwell Monterey Bay Aquarium 866 Cannery Row Monterey, Ca 93940 e-mail : [email protected] Introduction David packard’s fascination with the deep canyons located in Monterey Bay led the Monterey Bay Aquarium to start early investigations into the animals living in this unique environment. Our goal was to study the possibility of collecting and displaying these deep-sea animals to the public. Early work started in 1987 with mid-water tows on research vessels from Scripps Institution of Oceanography, Moss Landing Marine Laboratories and finally utilizing research vessels of the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute, MBARI. Their unique remotely controlled underwater vehicle was key to the success of the aquariums goals in making both observations and collections of deep sea creatures. The “Mysteries” team began with a list of 80 potential animals for possible consideration for the temporary exhibit; the final number was about 60. These 60 animals were robust and long-lived as well as being new and of unusual appearance making them suitable for aquarium exhibit. Early efforts of keeping animals from the deep taught the collectors and aquarists that special equipment and techniques would be needed to keep these animals in good health for long periods of time. Specialized holding and display tank designs, water temperature and light control as well as maintaining correct oxygen levels,very low dissolved oxygen in some cases for certain animals. Correctly thought-out collection techniques and ship-board care were shown to be critical to long-term survival.

Giant Pacific Octopus
A publication by: NORTHWEST WILDLIFE PRESERVATION SOCIETY Giant Pacific Octopus Enteroctopus dofleini Image from the Monterey Bay Aquarium https://www.montereybayaquarium.org By Veronica Pagowski The octopus is an elusive creature with an alien brain. Like humans, these intelligent animals can open jars, recognize faces, and use tools. Yet, only 35% of octopus neurons are located in their brain while 65% can be found in the tentacles. With such powerful, though strangely organized, cognitive systems octopuses have attracted the attention of numerous scientists and aquarists worldwide. The giant Pacific octopus is no exception. Each year, on Valentine’s day, the Seattle Aquarium draws crowds to view giant Pacific octopus mating--an event that can last over an hour. In British Columbia, this species is common enough that divers frequently report sightings. Characteristics The giant Pacific octopus is the largest of roughly 300 known species of octopus, often weighing over 23 kg (50 lbs) with arm spans up to 6 meters (20 feet). The largest recorded weight for this species was over 90 kg (200 lbs). Typically, giant Pacific octopuses are dark red in color with mottled skin, but these animals can quickly change colour or texture to blend in with surroundings. Though giant Pacific octopus colour changes are not as dramatic as the transformations in some other octopus species, colouring can nonetheless range from dark red to white or yellow while skin texture varies from smooth to rugged, flawlessly matching that of kelp or rocks. Each octopus arm can have over 200 suckers- each with the ability to taste, grip, and lift 14 kg (31 lbs).

In “The Secret Lives of Seahorses,” the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s new special exhibition, you’ll discover that nothing could be further from the truth. Beginning April 6, more than 15 species of seahorses, sea dragons, pipehorses and pipefish will beckon visitors into the elusive world of these charismatic creatures. The Secret Lives of Seahorses highlights the varied habitats in which seahorses and their relatives live, and shares important stories about the threats they face in the wild. “Seahorses are wonderful ambassadors for ocean conservation because they live in the most endangered habitats in the world – coral reefs, sea grass beds and mangrove forests,” said Ava Ferguson, senior exhibit developer for The Secret Lives of Seahorses. “When you save a seahorse, you also save some of Earth’s most precious marine habitats.” Through wrought-iron gates, visitors will enter the first gallery, “Seahorses and Kin,” and meet the seahorse family: fishes that have fused jaws and bony plates in place of the scales normally associated with fish.
