On this episode of 'Dan Does', host Daniel Geneen visits LA-based company TransparentSea, which aims to grow the biggest, happiest shrimp using cleaner, cheaper, and more sustainable growing conditions. Geneen watches the process first hand to see if this model works and is actually better for the environment. Geneen starts the day with Steve Sutton, the president of TransparentSea, as they receive a box that contains 12,000 15-day-old shrimp in it. The TransparentSea team brings in 50,000 microscopic shrimp babies every three weeks, with the goal of selling 100,000 jumbo prawns three months later. The baby shrimp are put into the nursery tanks — which are at a perfect salinity for growing as curated by the team — for three weeks. The shrimp then get moved into a growing tank. The transfer has to be fast so the shrimp have time to acclimate and grow accustomed to their new conditions at the same time. "They grow a lot better in here," explains Sutton. "It

Whether you're a lobster roll purist or long for a creative and spicy sandwich, the first step in crafting the perfect sandwich is sourcing the freshest lobster you can find. Maine (American) lobsters thrive in the icy cold waters from Nova Scotia to North Carolina.

Kenyan aquaculture company Victory Farms, East Africa's largest commercial fish farmer, has raised $5 million in equity funding to expand its operations into Rwanda, Tanzania and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The round was led by two angels, managing director of Bain Capital Ed Brakeman, and Hans den Bieman Director of Sealand Aquaculture. He is the former CEO of Mowi (formerly Marine Harvest), the largest producer of farmed salmon globally. Also participating in the round was another angel who is a contributor to the Forbes Technology Council and existing investor DOB Equity. The funding comes after the commercial fish farm secured a mezzanine debt investment from the ag-focused social impact investor AgDevCo in 2021, and investment from the private equity firm DOB Equity in 2020. The company has seen significant growth since its founding in 2014; it now has 600 employees and over 55 branches in Kenya. It is targeting a 15x growth in the next five-to-s

They have a reputation for being rubbery and sometimes gritty, they can seem daunting to prepare, and much like crabs, they even suffer from negative word association ("clammy" is never used as a positive descriptor for anything). But then there's also the phrase "happy as a clam"—and we're happy to dispel those other misgivings: clams are not overly chew

Dr. Phil and Dr. Oz have made headlines everywhere with what they recently announced in an exclusive interview. And while America is applauding their creation, the pharmaceutical industry digging for a lawsuit. The renowned doctors announced a project they have been working on for years has finally come to fruition, and it's users could not be more excited about it. Here is what Dr. Oz said: "Most people have now heard of cannabinoid oil, commonly known as CBD. However, not everyone knows how it works. Some older men and women see CBD as having the hallucinogenic effects like 'pot' or 'weed.' This causes a negative stigma. CBD actually has no THC whatsoever, which means there are absolutely no hallucinogenic effects. It is completely different. But there was still a problem with the CBD on the market... Although current companies have been selling CBD, the type of CBD is not potent enough to h

The St. Croix River, also known as the Schoodic River, flows through the homeland of the Passamaquoddy people between Maine and the province of New Brunswick. It once teemed with millions of migratory fish. Then came a series of dams that blocked the fish from their spawning grounds, and years of conflict over river management. But now the state of Maine, the Passamaquoddy tribes and government agencies that manage the river have formalized an agreement to protect the river and the fish. Passamaquoddy drummers opened a formal signing ceremony in Calais this week with a welcome song. Maggie Dana, chief of the Passamaquoddy Tribe at Sipayik, says the river is at the very heart of the tribe's culture. "Our people for thousands and thousands of years, have used this waterway for you know traveling, up and down the waterway to get to another community, fishing, sustaining ourselves," Dana says. But that fishing declined precipitously when dams blocked the river in the 1800s. T

Jean-Pierre Dick forced to abandon record attempt by Robin Clegg 17 May 09:01 UTC 6 May 2022 BERMUDES LORIENT – DÉFI PURE OCEAN © Pure Ocean Stormy conditions, technical problems and injury have forced Jean-Pierre Dick to abandon his attempted record breaking crossing in the first Bermuda Lorient - Pure Ocean Challenge. A main energy recharging system failure, poor weather conditions and a hand injury made the four-times Transat Jacques Vabre winner decide to halt the record attempt and divert to Horta, in the Azores. His JP54 boat had left from St George's, Bermuda, on Friday 6th May, but the attempt ended on Sunday 15th May as he sought shelter on the mid-Atlantic, Portuguese islands.

Fisheries biologists caught invasive armored catfish in Houston bayous in 2017.  TPWD Fishing via Twitter Researchers from Texas A&M and Texas State universities pulled 406 invasive suckermouth armored catfish from the San Marcos River in Texas earlier this month, per a Texas Parks and Wildlife Facebook post.  The catfish, also called plecostomus or plecos, are native to South America, Panama and Costa Rica, but were introduced into numerous water bodies in Texas after people dumped them from aquariums. The fish are popular among aquarists because they eat algae in tanks.  "A lot of time people purchase plecos for their fish aquariums to clean the bottoms of the fish tanks and the sides and keep algae out of the fish tanks, and they don't realize they can get up to two to two-and-a-half feet long," Melissa

Published Oct. 7, 2021 Humminbird was born in and still lives in the bass and inshore fishing world. Started in 1971 in Eufaula, Alabama and spearheaded by Tom Mann, Humminbird's first depth flasher brought deep-water bass fishing to the masses, especially tournament anglers. That started an arms race among sonar manufacturers to have the best electronics possible available at an affordable price for everyday anglers. To stay at the head of the competition, Humminbird set milestones in digital displays and high-powered sonar. The iconic black and gold fish finders are on the boats of the best anglers in the game. Today, Humminbird is on the cutting edge of side-imaging, down-imaging and live-view sonar. And, the company brings the best technology at an affordable price. From the simplest fish finder to the most advanced marine electronics, Humminbird emphasizes intuitive controls and user-friendly features. W

The Pregnant Guppy In the tumultuous era of the Space Race, NASA found itself with the ever-growing problem of transportation. With large pieces of equipment needing moving from factories to the launch pad, transport methods were slow and cumbersome. Through the Fifties, NASA would have to transport its machinery via land and/or sea through either the Gulf of Mexico or the Panama Canal, a truly arduous journey. The logistical nightmare needed drastic action, for the industries needed to prove their worth against their Soviet rivals. Until the Sixties, aircraft was not considered to transport these components. At the turn of the Sixties, an aeronautical company would come forth to develop an aircraft that would finally fill the role NASA lusted for. An aircraft that would be able to carry various materials in half the time. During this time, the guppies of the sea would learn how to fly.
