We had some more interesting visitors today, including Ian Somerhalder from Vampire Diaries. I only know him as the brother of a character in Lost who died really early in the series. However he was a really cool dude, and it was a pleasure meeting him! He is involved in some coral restoration projects that are really beneficial and it's encouraging to see some actors having a good influence on environmental concerns. That's him diving with us in the center of the picture. It was actually a thought-provoker, being visited by a vampire, as they are creatures of the night. So tonight after I finished testing the corals for their photosynthetic capabilities, I set aside a little time with a flashlight to explore just the very walls and floors of the outer Aquarius habitat at night. It's like a different world!
Happy World Ocean's Day everyone!

Oh, and just for fun, I looked at some corals under a red light. Pretty cool results! :D
