Scientists put the oysters in an aquarium with dirty water. Look what happened just a few hours!

Oysters belong to the family of marine bivalves. These creatures have an amazing ability to filter the water through their gills.

It is known that the oyster can be cleaned from 75 to 200 liters of water per day. According to the researchers, this ability brings great benefit to the ecosystem. The transparency of the water significantly influences the degree of penetration of sunlight into the pond. Good lighting contributes to the growth of plants and algae, which soon will be able to help marine life to hide from predators.

Recently conducted an interesting experiment: two aquariums filled with water from the river Hong, the mouth of the Gulf Chesalikskogo that visually looked quite dirty. In one of the tanks placed oysters and left them for a while. After 2 hours, shellfish purified water, and it became clear!

Do not believe me - look at the video below and see for yourself!

Well? Is not it amazing? Who would have thought that the usual shellfish known to each of us have this ability and are as good for the environment! Show the video to his friend - even if he learns something new!
