In a year, one large parrotfish can produce 1,000 pounds (450 kg) of sand, the weight of a baby grand piano.
Most of the sand comes from waves sloshing onto rocks though, right? right?
most of the sand is eroded inland and deposited by rivers
Thank fuck for that!
Depends entirely on where you're at. Our coastal beaches are pure white and sound like popcorn (fish eating) when you're underwater near coral.
The beaches along the rivers can be brown sand, washed down as you say, but some are pebbles instead. Never understood how two rivers so close together ended up with such different beaches.
I had never thought about the reproductive cycles of grand pianos, fascinating
Ya know that sound that you can hear under the water at white sand beaches? Sound like sand being ground through a bearing? Or a neck joint pressurizing? Yeah, that's the parrot fish... happily eating away.
Being able to live of coral? Did you forget an “F”?
There. I ixed it. 👇😃
You are the best “F”-r
☺️
I love your work!
Oh, thank you. 🤗
I’m trying to carve out a little niche for myself. Glad to find you in that niche. 🖐️🤓
Definitely should have been "live off coral".
Dammit. I always make that mistake. 😣
The grammar checker also shrugs at this. 🤷♂️
I laughed a little too hard at this, because I just don’t love the beach. Felt like I should send it to my friends who are beach nuts, but looked down at my toast with honey I was eating and realized how much we enjoy things that are made by the excretion of other creatures.
The animals are full of surprises. 🤯
