Mrs Materialistic: Go fish!

For now, let's try to forgot my work dilemma. Let's just focus on the bizarre water/fish-related things I found while surfing the net. Why I suddenly found these interesting is also a mystery to me so don't even try asking me why I'm reading up on these things

1. Nomura's Jellyfish

One of my contacts in Facebook posted an article about how the Nomura jellyfish are encroaching on the waters of Japan. These creatures apparently can grow as big as a sumo wrestler! The Nomura jellyfish are usually found in the Yellow Sea and East China Sea. Researchers monitoring the activity of giant jellyfish in Chinese waters are warning of a potentially historic and catastrophic invasion of Japanese waters this year.

2. Cichlid

There's nothing really special about this particular fish but I just found out today that this is the english term for what is more popularly known here in the Philippines as tilapia. This is my achievement for today--learning another name for tilapia!
