MARINE BIOLOGIST reacts to FINDING NEMO - Part II

[@fredericksaxton9782]

Poisonous? Isn't it venom cause it's injected, not absorbed?

[@Seamemaria]

You are in fact right. Even though jellyfish can also be poisonous when ingested, their nematocysts and venom make them venomous and not poisonous. My mistake there! Thanks for the tip

[@Chemeleon15]

2:30 She repeatedly said venom. She only typed “poisonous” once

[@brandonlyon730]

I've heard you can drink pure snake venom and it won’t do any major harm to you (it's probably tastes disgusting to drink but at it won’t kill) so as long as it doesn't go directly to your bloodstream you will be fine, unless you have a sore throat or something then it will go into your bloodstream and start to kill you.

[@FryingPan76]

I'm surprised you didn't bring up the fact that the stoner vibe Crush gives off is a reference to how some Turtles get high by eating jellyfish.

[@loura246]

One major detail that you glossed over concerning the whole "going down the drain to get to the ocean" part, is that these are marine fish that are adapted to a saltwater environment, and they would not survive long at all in freshwater.

[@masterofpuppets5072]

Yes also all drains don't go to the ocean

[@golesediericalesolame6829]

I have a video suggestion if you're open. How about a video about things we can do to help save our oceans? Thank you!!!❤

[@Abbanellie]

Honestly what really bothered me about this movie was the aquarium filter lmao. When they shut it off, there was a ton of algae growth, and that isn't how that works at all!! Filters provide space for beneficial bacteria (which turns ammonia into nitrates, which then get removed through water changes and absorbed by plants), they don't prevent algae growth at all. Algae is caused by exess nutrients and sunlight, not ammonia. All they would've done by breaking the filter was cause an ammonia spike and die :/ Sorry for the spiel lol

[@lissiatchley8643]

Youre so inspiring! I want to be a marine biologist when I'm older, I absolutely love your videos.

[@InfiniteText]

Finding Nemo is literally my favourite movie of all time. I think I watched it over 10000 times and to see these videos makes me over the moon happy! Thank you so much for making these

[@Seamemaria]

Thank you! That means a lot

[@Seamemaria]

FINALLY!!! After 6 months here is the second part of my reaction to/explanation of Finding Nemo. For all of you who were asking for this I apologize for taking so long. And also if I appear and sound sick, it’s because I was. Nevertheless I hope you enjoy this video! And don´t forget we are part of nature and taking care of it just means taking care of our home.

[@bel410la]

I love Jellyfish, they are so interesting to me, it's like they are just a floating brain. There is a Jellyfish known as the Immortal Jellyfish also known as Turritopsis Dohrnii that when it gets old enough, it can reverse it's aging process back to being a larva, duplicate itself, then re-age. It is not technically immortal, but it can live for hundreds of years. They are very small, almost the size of a pinky nail. But on the topic of Venom, the most Venomous Jellyfish in the world is the Box Jellyfish as you mentioned, which could cause death from one sting, they mostly live in Australia(Where this movie takes place). One species of Box Jellyfish are called the Irukandji jellyfish, Also smaller than a fingernail can cause marks on the body called Feathering marks like if someone had been struck by lightning. (I did a project on Jellyfish for my Ecology Class)

[@possessedpicklejar4762]

Not to mention turtles actually getting stoned from eating jellyfish, or something like that.

[@sammylane21]

At 5:30, I think this is the scene that started my pathological fear of massive animals and objects?? My fear/phobia is a combo of Thalassophobia and Megalophobia.

[@nikosgialitsis9414]

Hi there ! I enjoy your videos every time and your love for marine life is is so apparent . Also Nemo was such an amazing movie - you should definitely watch Finding Dory as well. I am currently working on my BSc thesis on bioinformatics (comparative genomics- conserved non coding elements) as a CS student , and I have noticed that you mentioned bioinformatics yourself in a couple of stories on instagram! I would be really interested in learning what tools / languages you are using for your projects. Also, i hope that your PhD is going well (the phd vlogs are always interesting to watch!). Greeting from Greece - and currently Switzerland

[@Seamemaria]

hi Nikolas! Thanks for the nice comment! :) I am using R and python. But very very very basic stuff. Luckily there is a bioinformatician in our lab who does all the heavy lifting. But the little I get to do, I do enjoy. If I could go back to my bachelor/masters I would have definitely have taken more bioinformatics courses. Greeting to Greece!

Theory:Crush adopted Squirt

[@dnewlander]

In Sydney, the toilets and sinks (and all of the rest of the plumbing) runs directly out into the ocean. Bondi Bay, for Sydney proper, in fact. Maybe the warmth would have killed Nemo, but he's a tropical fish, so I doubt it. Probably all of the fish waiting at the end of the pipe 30 meters from one of the world's most iconic beaches certainly would have, though. Aussies. Gotta love them.

[@cromwellcruz]

I genuinely waited for this video

[@TriumphantPenguin2]

Nice video! Keep up the good work in the future. By the way, do you know that there were plenty of factual errors seen in the film when Marlin and Dory were inside the blue whale's mouth? For instance, whale's mouths and throats aren't directly connected to one another, so Marlin and Dory would have more than likely been swallowed by the blue whale or had to force their way out the blue whale's blowhole. In addition, blue whale's throats are not as large as portrayed in the film, only being as large as a grapefruit, dinner plate, or beach ball- though still large enough for Marlin and Dory to fit in. Blue whales have black baleen, while the one portrayed in the film has yellow baleen. And, most noticeably (and unusually), despite being portrayed as having one, blue whales do not have uvulas (the pendulum shaped structure that dangles in the back of your throat), though in the film, it doesn't look too out of place inside the whale's mouth, dangling and moving with the water inside, and the whale was given one as "stage dressing" to make the whale's mouth feel more like a giant cave. P.S. I got some of these facts (e.g. the whale uvula one) on good authority from the film's research consultant himself, Adam P. Summers, who also explained to me that water sadly does not move around inside whale's mouths like a giant waterpark wave pool. However, it would certainly be cool if that was the case. In addition, if whales had uvulas in real life, their throats probably wouldn't look so empty- and that would be cool too.

[@TriumphantPenguin2]

Thoughts on the inaccuracies and facts described, as well as the pondering on if those inaccuracies were real? You can totally steal those and use them in another video if you want to, BTW. 😉

[@historyfreak6591]

I have a question. Not sure if you will see it Maria or be able to get back to me but do the nematocysts on anemones work the same way as they do on jellyfish? I work at an aquarium and I think this would be a very interesting fact to tell visitors.

[@golesediericalesolame6829]

Hi Maria!!!!☺ Great video!!! I think I was most shocked that the EAC is 100km wide!! It's incredible!! I'm really happy that you mentioned facts about green sea turtles. I'm pretty much obssesed with marine turtles, most especially with hawk'sbill turtles and green turtles. Its really sad that they're endangered. It's really great that you reacted to finding nemo.

[@kylevansteelandt3971]

There are only three inaccuracies about marine biology that I found in Finding Nemo: 1. Barracudas don't eat fish eggs, they eat live prey. 2. Nigel and his friends are Brown Pelicans. Brown pelicans are not found in Sydney Australia. They are found in Florida (the southern eastern parts of the USA). 3. The lifespan of Green sea turtles is up to eighty years. Not one hundred and fifty. By the way, one hundred and fifty is not young for a sea turtle. I want to thank you for spotting something that I have not noticed. Other than that, I still love Finding Nemo, even as an adult. I give it four out of five stars.

Never free fish into your local environment. The fish you free may dominate the local ecosystem by having no predators or introduce a parasite or disease that can damage the local flora or fauna.

[@freakygoblin3068]

If you want to free an anomal, and this goes to many animals, do not release it into the wild either. Florida, as one example, has had many had it's reef ecology damaged by released lionfish which is an invasive species. Always buy any pet only after research and with the understanding it is for life, not for a short time. If you cannot look after it anymore, the best place is another pet owner who is aware of it's needs and give it the life it deserves.

Hi thank you! I haven´t vlogged that much through my PhD, I think deep down I am not a vlogger. But I guess it depends on what you want to show. Just work or also private life? If you want to vlog at work maybe it is good to plan a bit what you want to show. In my case, there are always a lot of people around who understandably do not like to be disturbed while working, so I had to plan to film when there were less people around. Or you can film and do a voice off to explain what is happening in the video. I´m sorry I do not have much better advice than that, I think I also need some myself ^^ I wish you the best of luck with your channel and PhD!
