The water around the undersea volcanoes is really harsh and acidic, but some species have found a way to live near or inside hydrothermal vents. A special type of shrimp from the dark depths of the ocean has adapted to grazing the bacterial filaments. In fact, undersea volcanoes provide three very important life-sustaining elements in those areas – minerals, hot water, and bacteria. When a group of researchers took adequate equipment and managed to leave their camera in the hot acidic waters for an hour, they had no idea they were going to find sharks! They were hiding in the deep, orange, murky waters around the Solomon Islands’ submerged Kavachi. #brightside Attribution according #35:
