Qulio Fish Tank for Viewing and Easy Breeding of Clione : Di


DigInfo – http://www.diginfo.tv

Clione are often referred to as “sea angels” because of their beautiful, transparent form.

Breeding of clione is difficult, and until now the aquatic animal could only be seen in special facilities such as aquariums.

Genesys World, Inc. is now selling a small fish tank for viewing enjoyment, and the fish tank can be used to easily breed clione as well.

Clione ociate with Spiratella, which inhabit the Sea of Okhotsk, and grow to an overall length of roughly 0.5 ~ 3 centimeters. Breeding and viewing clione requires water currents similar to ocean currents in the natural world and also requires that the water temperature be maintained around 5˚C.

Research in recent years has confirmed that clione eat bait only once in their lifetime, and the clione being sold have already consumed their prey so they do not need to be artificially fed. To care for clione, all you have to do is add more salt water once a month to compensate for the amount of water that has evaporated.

The fish tank weighs 4.2kg and is 23cm wide by 26 cm deep by 30 cm tall, and 3 sets of clione cost 89,250 yen including tax.
