Deep Sea Vent Ecology - A Brief and Semi-Remembered Broad Overview So there's life in the deep oceans here on Earth, and I mean the deep oceans, two and three miles down, where light has never and will never reach. And this life lives without oxygen, or light, and they do it around deep sea vents, fissures in the tectonic plate, that spew heavy metals and toxic gases at scorching (or boiling, as the case may be) temperatures. These chemicals and metals build up around the fissure and form…

You can either put them in an ice chest and take him home to eat or you can…
pointed roof, as well as the posts out front with rope tied in them, which gives you the feeling of standing on a dock. When you first walk into this fine establishment, you would see a giant metal crab on the hostess booth shining with its brilliant colors in the sunlight. The sunlight reflecting off the crab reminded me of a sunset off the coast of Maine. There is also an aquarium full of live lobsters that you can look at while you are waiting to be seated.
