    @Journey to the Microcosmos Hey, did you guys ever end up getting samples deep down from a drilling company? The reason I ask is I actually know a person that tests those samples from all depths for a Texas drilling company. During the process, he actually throws out the excess from the sample that isn't needed. If you still want specimens, I can ask him. He would also be able to label the specimens with what types of dirt/minerals are included, as that's what he does for his job.

    I don't know exactly how Kerona managed to slip and slide all over the hydras tentacles. But it does make me think of something else with a similar behaviour. Clown fish living amongst sea anemone. Clown fish rub themselves up against the tentacles of the anemones to steal their mucus. The mucus stops the anemone from stinging itself. And voilà instant bodyguard. I noticed how Kerona slips and slides up and down those tentacles of the hydra. Perhaps it's doing something similar.

    One of the coolest things I EVER saw was a video of a hydra (Hail Hydra) that got grounded up into must, literally... Then, over the course of a few days, the cells of hydra reorganized themselves back into a living, functioning, full hydra. You think of life as being so fragile, however, this animal was ground down into paste, but was able to put itself back together, literally, and go on living a normal life, as if nothing happened. Truly incredible. No wonder scientists are so obsessed with stem-cells.

    I had an infestation of hydra in an aquarium once. Getting overzealous with feeding live baby brine shrimp to fish is a top cause. But hydra are visible to the naked eye and positively fascinating! With a small (4x) magnifying glass, you can examine them more closely. They do no real harm to aquarium fish. Some say neocaridina shrimp are at risk, but my population of shrimp thrived.

    This made me wonder, how does the hydra stop its nematocysts from triggering when its own tentacles touch?
    Also, the Kerona remind me of small animals that live off cleaning bigger animals. Perhaps their presence is useful in such a way? Maybe having scraps floating around or stuck to the tentacles is disadvantageous to the Hydra in some way, it may be harmful when it detoriates, attracting bad bacteria or releasing harmful enzymes.

It seemed like they had more arms than a normal hydra but the body stem was thinner than a hydra arm thin (again very wispy) unlike a hydra which has some substance to it. They'd contract if I tapped the glass. This was 30years ago so that's all i can say on it...
