    Default Pacific Biological Station

    We ended up going... It was fun. The amount of information was staggering.

    **The 'ocean scene' was at the beginning of the tour and the guide explained what all the fish were, they had brought in basically what you would see here in the water, and not too deep down... There was (excuse spelling pls) Lincod, Rockfish, urchins, sea cucumber?, skate, Mud Sharks, and something that I would call a Flounder but don't remember what it was. There was a type of fish for basically every level of the 'tank' I know there was more but I was distracted with the Mud Sharks - I know I've seen those in the water.... post shock?

    **The fish on ice was a display of many of the fish like the 'tank' but you could touch poke and, um, smell them. There was a kid holding the Ratfish going Squeak Squeak! It was awesome, instantly became my favourite fish.

    ^^ My favourite right there the Spotted Ratfish.

    There were no dates that I saw on these pictures... but obviously some time difference there.

    **Those are Albino Salmon...
    An ENORMOUS Lobster.
    And the view from the Rickers ship... Deadliest Catch like...

    Years ago I used to clean the Biological station, quite an interesting place I agree.
