Amazing Awesome Aquatic Animals.


Dinoflagellates Phytoplankton- They live in large numbers in tropical waters. There are about 2,000 different types of dinoflagellates. 


Copepods- zooplankton
Copepods are small crustaceans found in both fresh and salt water. 


Water Lily- a pretty aquatic macrophyte.

This fish lives in the coral reefs surrounding the Hawaiian Islands. It is a fish that I used to love to find as a small child, and it has the coolest name.

Crawfish
In Louisiana these crustaceans build tiny little towers that dot the cow pastures. They make a wonderful meal and are quite fun to try and catch.


Manatee- Mermaid of the Sea
