so meaning they can handle higher pressure then fish from like say amazon?

 

[Mgamer20o0]

no but the higher a fish comes from the cooler temps of the water where they were found in nature.

OH, wait, i though the higher the region/area fish come from equals higher temps considering the area is closer to the sun... i may have been wrong though. nice to know about the WCMM though!

Great job on white cloud exposure!

NVM i was thinking of like areas where frontosas come from, where catchers have to take days to bring the fronts up to sufice or they well die.. so i was wrong about the WCMM.

 

[Mgamer20o0]

water depth vs area height is 2 different things.... think death vally is a real low point yet the mountains it snows at a high point
