    If anyone wants to learn from the world's leading researcher in marine bioluminescence look up information and materials produced be ORCAs chief marine biologist doctor Edith Wider. She has a few videos and even a website, unfortunately for us aquarists, she mostly focusses on deep water. I would love to spend one day with her. And a voice recorder........

    Update:
    After all the excitement about the clusterwink snail, I have bluezoo aquatics on the job, their collectors in Australia are actively searching for the species for me.

    I also am in contact with Dimitri Deheyn from the San Diego institute of oceanography, the supreme expert in the USA on this species. And so far he is working with me to establish research for the aquarium trade.
    ( I almost feel like an important person I'm taking this one serious)
    He has living specimens of hinea brasiliana in his possession. As far as I know they are the only living specimens in the united states as of today.

    Soon I may well have a starter culture for the trade.

    Now I have ibluewater on the case, bob over there is helping me.
    Ibluewater is a sponsor of 3reef.com forums. And the speed of his response makes him my favorite supplier as of today...
