Ya I think its scary. I've never heard of this and so many animals depend on this food source. I know its a small % of sardines but why did it happen. They said that too many got trapped in a small space and depleted the oxygen in the water but I'm not sure if I buy that or not. WOW

 

[ReefDreams]

According to the article it has happened in the past due to algae blooms, but I agree with you it is pretty scary and there has been alot of stuff happening in the world that just makes me think 2012 is true lol. Somedays I honestly feel like going on a shopping spree with my wife but then I get the mail and reality sets back in lol.

One of my good friend saw that i might be a little worried about 2012 so he sent me this to comfort me!! :squigglemouth:

More Than 1,000 Dead Birds Fall From Sky In Arkansas

this happens about every other year here in Jacksonville in the ST. JOHNS river, we have algal bloom fish kills all the time then within about 2 weeks everything's back to normal, it also happens (rarely) when we get those nasty red tides

Its our fault..dog poop silt run off..construction..trash sewage..wast..algae utilizes all the excess nutrients then dies..then the bacteria grow in trillions eating all the dead algae using up all the oxygen....similar to vodka dosing..I say we build a humongous protein skimmer and sit it out in the bay!

Lol we can convert an oil drilling platform, with a mile long bubble chamber the whole ocean is good to go!

 

[drainbamage]

I thought this was just a thread with you sharing with all of us that you threw up, hah.

But wow, that's pretty horrifying, I know it happens from times to time, but still, that much life just done in so short a time period is nuts.

that's what i was thinking... we have a house in CO... but if plates are shifting then being in the mountains might now be the best place to be. but then again if the poles shift and we have 1000m+ waves, we're all toast! I hope the Mayans are wrong! but something tells me they had insight from a higher intelligence...........

 

[Tenacious716]

That's crazy! Do you live in Redondo Beach? I have been considering moving out there, and Redondo Beach seems to be one of the nicer parts of LA.

PS- You going to CFM? I'll be there! :D

 

[Reef UP]

Crazy ! For sure just goes to show we really do not know much about our surroundings!

 

[mersam74]

i would be out there picking out the good ones to eat
you belive in 2012 predicted by the Mayan calender, really the Mayans the ones who performed human sacrifices and rip out there hearts and wear the skin as a coat
