Introduction

Welcome to our blog, Kimmode123. We are the Kim Mode Team. Here we will post about the marine organisms we have seen during our various field trips. All creatures featured on this blog have been spotted and seen personally by us. Also included are our reflections of the field trips, and the pictures we have taken. Pictures NOT taken by us have been labeled with (R) to indicate that the picture is taken from one of our sources. All sources and references are included at the end of each post. 

We have done our best to identify as any marine creatures as possible(more than 40), and classified most of them into the posts "Mangroves!!","Echinoderms","Arthropods" and "Fishes".  The link Gallery will take you to our reflections posts, while "Marine Creatures I.D." will take you to other posts.

With gratitude for your time, 

The Kim Mode team.

Underwater World

Ray Pool

Today we arrived at the underwater world in sentosa just in time to watch it open. While people paused to take pictures, we proceeded to look at a shallow shark tank just in front of the entrance which was unfortunately not a touch pool. The stingray pool, however, was where we had a chance to to touch big marine animals. The stingrays were big and slimy.

Next we went to the bigger shark pool to see bigger sharks and it was also not a touch pool. IT was followed by a whole room full of tanks which contained long fish, alongside a room clustered with crabs. Then we saw some jellyfish. Glowing jellyfifh. Also glowing gastropods.

We went on the travelator afterwards. We soon had to run off to a dolphin and seals interactive show, but it was really short. This is followed by a few more trips around the exibitions before our transport came and we had to leave.

Here are some pictures we took
