Coral polyps incubator, also known as coral base, is a tool designed by the world's top marine ecological research team to protect coral reefs.

As we all know, corals are beautiful, there are many polyps, and the polyps are also very small. At the same time, the polyps grow very slowly.

Perhaps some polyps have a faster growth rate and can grow four centimeters a year, but this is useless for a coral reef.

The youngest coral reefs that exist in the world so far have a history of 100,000 years. For example, the Great Barrier Reef and the Maldives, these famous islands have a history of millions or even tens of millions of years.

Due to the increase in seawater acidity and human pollution caused by the greenhouse effect, coral polyps are dying in large quantities around the world, and many coral reefs have lost their colorful glory.

To protect coral reefs, coral bases were born. These incubators could mimic the optimal living environment for coral polyps, lure them to grow and reproduce, and then put them back to the sea areas suitable for their growth in order to strengthen the population of coral polyps.

Ao Muyang feels that the warm currents near Brick Island can also feed coral polyps. The warm current sea area is just shallow and can freely receive sunlight. A warm living environment and sunlight are exactly two necessary elements for the survival of coral polyps.

The price of coral polyps is very high, and a unit of coral population costs at least tens of thousands of yuan.

When Lu Hu learned that he was going to buy polyps, he was confused: "Why do you buy this? Do you want to keep it in the aquarium tank for fun?"

Ao Muyang smiled and said, "Coral has a great effect on the fishing ground. If I could feed the coral polyps, it would be a century-old fishing ground."

The salesperson next to him said, "You have to be careful. If the coral polyps survives, you may not be able to pile up a coral reef and build a scenic spot."

Lu Hu shook his head: "Anyway, I can't see it, nor can my grandson see it. Do you really dare to think about it? Use a batch of coral polyps to build a coral reef? That's a big project!"

Coral polyps have different shapes, colors, and various types.

In terms of classification, they can be divided into group type and haplotype. The well-known sea anemone is monomeric polyps, with a large body shape.

Ao Muyang bought a batch of sea anemones. They are orange-red in color and are cylindrical in shape. They support their whole body with thick soles. They have mouths on the top of their heads and have touch crowns around their mouths, which look like a circle of beards.

In the huge incubator, the anemones survived on each other and formed a group of small fishes wandering inside. They looked beautiful, but in fact they were cruel. These small fish were food.

Some small fish are close to sea anemones, and once they encounter the crown that swings around with the water flow, they immediately stop moving because there are thorn cells inside the crown that touches the crown, which is poisonous.

What he bought was more group of coral polyps, and he relied on a lime skeleton to survive collectively. This is the expert in reef building.

Specifically, the group of coral polyps are also divided into six-lay corals and eight-lay corals. Eight-lay corals are the most beautiful and have diverse shapes. Some look like fans, some look like floor lamps, some look like dry branches, and some look like swinging whips.

But the most important thing is the six-sided corals, which are good at secreting calcareous matter. These polyps groups continue to aggregate, expand, and increase, which forms a huge coral reef.

Buying coral polyps was a big investment, and Ao Muyang directly threw one million yuan.

As a result, when the salesperson bought it, he told him good news that he only had to pay 800,000 yuan, and the state would subsidize 200,000 yuan.

However, he couldn't get the 200,000 yuan, and the salesperson immediately told him: "Mr. Ao, if you buy polyps, you have to buy the turtle."

Ao Muyang had never heard of such things and asked, "What? Beiji?"

The salesperson smiled and said, "Yes, Beixin, you should know the starfish invasion in the Great Barrier Reef in the 1990s, right? In just two years, the coral group of the Great Barrier Reef was swallowed by starfish, causing a large amount of corals to disappear."

Ao Muyang has never heard of this starfish invasion, but he knew that the starfish's mouth can grind coral stones and eat coral polyps. Once they invade coral reefs in groups, it is like locusts passing through the border, which can cause great damage to the corals!

The salesperson continued to explain: "Australian oceanographers and biologists studied this invasion at that time and found that the reason why starfish suddenly reproduced explosively was because tourists caught newts, which liked to prey on starfish and were the patron saint of coral reefs."

Since that's the case, what did Ao Muyang say? He had to buy a large group of Beixin again.

This kind of creature is rare in domestic waters. They are mollusks with shells and have much more tenacious vitality than coral polyps. The reason why few sea areas introduce them is because most waters do not have coral polyps and do not need to hunt starfish.

Seaweed seeds and seaweed seeds are sown at will to allow them to grow freely, while coral polyps are placed in warm waters, attaching them to incubators.

These incubators will be the initial attachment point for their extended population, and as the population expands, they will proliferate on the corpse of their ancestors.

Of course, first of all, coral polyps can survive in the fishing grounds.

I bought the seeds and coral polyps of seaweed and seaweed. Ao Muyang's fishing ground has another step in the spring construction plan, and that is, I will release a lot of gold.

He threw out the drops of gold, spreading them into countless small golden dots and scattered in the sea water, and then the fishing ground became lively.

All the fish, shrimps and crabs came out and floated in the water to catch gold dots. Some gold dots would attach to seaweed, which could also utilize gold drops.

Looking at the beautiful group of lobsters and mantis shrimps floating in the sea, Ao Muyang probably figured out a puzzle: why lobsters and mantis shrimps survive in the breeding pond and prey on each other, but not in the sea.

The reason should be related to the living environment. They will attack each other when crowded in the breeding pond. In the open sea, whether shrimp or crabs will be separated from each other and will no longer live in groups. In this case, they will rarely attack each other.

Ao Muyang used underwater propellers to swim around in the fishing ground, sprinkling gold drops everywhere. Among them, the coral polyps have the most sprinkled. The gold drops can enhance their activity and allow them to have better adaptability to the environment.

In the spring, there were more and more fishing boats. Ao Muyang left Zhong Cang in the fishing ground and asked him to take charge of the guard. He still had to go back to the village himself.

After returning to the village, it was the tenth day of the lunar month. This time he stayed in the fishing ground for two and a half days.

He entered the door with his front legs, Ao Fugui got on his heels, and after he came in, he shouted, "Yangzi, hurry up, someone is coming to beat your wife again."

Ao Muyang said inexplicably: "What's my wife?"

Ao Fugui said, "I don't understand this? It's just that someone is coming to harass Teacher Lu again."

Ao Muyang was excited and said, "The idiot who was cheated by me as a Mercedes-Benz is back?"

Ao Fugui shook his head: "No, this time I came here with a tiny face, but he is much more powerful."
