United States Atlantic (North American coastal)During the Summer of 2012, the Nursery was a patch of algae about 30 yards off the Fort Lauderdale beach populated by juvenile Bluespotted Coronetfish, baby reef squid, Plumed Scorpionfish, several octopus and a number of Green Sea Turtles. In October of 2012, Hurricane Sandy passed offshore but sent large waves that took out A1A, much of the beach and all of the Nursery. We're all hoping it comes back.

Philippines Visayan SeaMantis shrimp or stomatopods are marine crustaceans, the members of the order Stomatopoda. They may reach 30 centimetres (12 in) in length, although exceptional cases of up to 38 cm (15 in) have been recorded. The carapace of mantis shrimp covers only the rear part of the head and the first four segments of the thorax. Mantis shrimp appear in a variety of colours, from shades of browns to bright neon colours. Although they are common animals and among the most important predators in many shallow, tropical and sub-tropical marine habitats, they are poorly understood as many species spend most of their life tucked away in burrows and holes.
