Who would have thought there would actually be life in Antarctica waters? Scientists have found giant Macroptychaster sea stars in Antarctic waters. They also found jellyfish with 12-foot tentacles and those sea stars pictured above are about 2 feet wide. We are thinking that to keep those new jumbo sea stars in an aquarium at home you would need a mighty powerful chiller, along with a massive tank to go along with it. Researches also found a new sea cucumber they have nick-named “sea pig”. Nice. Robertson, a scientist with NIWA said that of the 30,000 specimens collected, hundreds might turn out to be new species.
