I drew a shrimp for every day of September, I haven't done a month-long art challenge in years so this was a fun project! 🥰

Shares appreciated! 💕

TIL that 1. There is a “Crab Time” feed on bs that includes any posts with the 🦀 emoji and 2. #shrimptember exists

But…I didn’t know about #shrimptember until 1st October! And now I have to wait a whole year?!😭

SHRIMPtember concludes a Devonian decapod whose descendants become shrimp 🦐, lobsters 🦞, and crabs 🦀 (but not Dendrobranchiata -- prawns 🍤).

Personal life has been kicking my butt but I will have more to show off soon!

SHRIMPtember 🦐 The giant red mysid is a deep-sea dweller. When threatened, they produce a luminescent cloud as a distraction and escape.

SHRIMPtember 🦐 The arrow shrimp has an unusually long snoot. When threatened, they cling to blades of seagrass and try to blend in.

I’ve made it mostly through #shrimptember26, posting on my personal IG stories. I don’t know whether it’s worth the trouble to have a third IG account for my 2D art. Anyway, here is a sea flea found deep in the ocean. #sciart #oceanart #amphipod #shrimptember

SHRIMPtember 🦐 Setose clam shrimp are brachiopods (related to brine shrimp and water fleas) that developed a bivalve carapace for protection. It just happens to look and work like a clam's shell.

SHRIMPtember 🦐 While they are shrimp-shaped, Antarctic krill aren't decapods! They are small, but numerous and vital to the Antarctic ecosystem. (You know there's a lot of krill because they're measured by mass instead of quantity)

#shrimptember Day 16: Banded Tozeuma Shrimp (Tozeuma armatum)

SHRIMPtember 🦐 The longtail tadpole shrimp is what peak performance looks like; they haven't changed for millions of years! Their eggs can wait in dry soil for decades, waiting for rains to come and form the ephemeral ponds they live in.

#shrimptember Day 15: Killer Crab (Zosimus aeneus)

SHRIMPtember 🦐 The Pink Floyd pistol shrimp is named after the band because of its bright pink claw. The shrimp's snap can reach 210 decibels (for reference, a jet engine gets about 140 decibels)!
