摘要: The AbyssBox project aims to provide the first permanent public exhibition of live deep-sea hydrothermal fauna maintained at in situ pressure. is a pressurized aquarium designed function permanently. Here we present details after functioned for more than three years Oceanopolis Brest, France. We also describe pressure aquarium, and data observations on vent shrimp (Mirocaris fortunata) crabs (Segonzacia mesatlantica) that were sampled from 1700 m depth Lucky Strike field (Mid-Atlantic Ridge) during different cruises. While mortalities exceeded 50% days following sampling, remaining animals appeared acclimate fairly well. Some have now been kept 2 years, some spent 3 captivity. Primarily exhibition, already used scientific purposes, since it provides one most effective tools long-term rearing fauna. step towards maintaining variety year-round pressure, which will serve both interests.
