Animal of the week: The chambered nautilus. This one is a specimen that was given to me by a guy who captive breeds them. It arrived very late last night and I was up most of the night acclimating it to my tank. It is without doubt one of the coolest animals ever, and has remained unchanged for over 500 million years. To give that some perspective, that’s about 300 million years before the first dinosaur arose.
Take a very in-depth photo tour of the solar system. Part I. Part II.
