Better Together: Snapping Shrimp and Goby Fish Team Up | Alien Abyss 102

The seas and oceans of planet earth are filled with creatures that look and act decidedly unearthly. Some have bizarre adaptations and others are just plain creepy. But being strange alone won’t win them life’s daily battles. To guarantee survival, these deep-sea weirdos must rely on help from a friend, an accomplice or even a significant other. Take for instance, the Giant Kelp of the North American seas. They find themselves under attack from invading alien like creatures called purple urchins. In just a few years, these urchins decimate kelp forests and turn them into urchin barrens. But Kelp gets help from an unlikely source- Sea Otters. These marine mammals feed of over a thousand urchin a day, keeping them in check and thus helping Kelp regenerate. Other relationships are a lot more straightforward like the one between the snapping shrimp and the Goby. Blind snapping shrimp needs the Goby to look out for incoming danger while its digs all day. The Goby warns the shrimp when trouble does arrive and in turn, the shrimp allows his protector the use of his burrow. But no partnership is weirder or more bizarre than that between the Pearl fish and the Sea cucumber. The Pearl fish is pretty useless at defending itself from predators. It needs a place to hide. Inexplicably, its favourite hiding spot is inside the anus of the sea cucumber. There it finds a safe hiding spot because most predators find the cucumbers repulsive. When the sea cucumber moves around, the pearl fish gets a ride to new feeding grounds while still staying at home. How does a swim bladderless fish manage to get around in the vast ocean? Are unfortunate looking Wolf Eels actually as weird as they look? Why do hermit crabs walk around with plastic headdresses? How do small fish manage to come out unscathed from within a predator’s jaws? Find out in the Alien Abyss.
