This morning, Friday 29.3.24/15/XNUMX, I swam at the house reef in Bat Galim together with a lot of small ribs. Huge swarms of elves, of all sizes. The biggest ones I saw were about XNUMX cm in diameter.
A sea of small ribs ► Watch
Their arms were caught in everything, and when I came out of the water I looked like I came out of water full of cobwebs.
A huge amount of ribs
It's really lucky that they don't burn, otherwise it would have been really impossible to pass them, I've never seen such a quantity in Bat Galim in my life and I've been here for several decades.
Get in the water, it's a dream!
The water temperature is around 18 degrees and the wireworms are still here, no longer in the quantities they were, the huge shoal has moved and made way for huge shoals of the small rib.

Very fascinating. Shalom and blessed Sabbath
Moti, how do you explain these quantities that have not been seen here before?
Hello Pinchas.
There are several hypotheses for this, but they all have a common denominator. The greenhouse effect and the warming of our precious globe.
Warm water, lots of rain and the entry of food organisms that are used for their nutrition.
Regarding the size... an unusual phenomenon to the extent that I had to cut a jellyfish and measure in parts up to 38 kg. And also a lack of winter storms.
