Thanks Brian. I’m glad you like the colossal squid exhibit and it was great to hear that you check back on your squid every so often, to see what it’s been up to

I really enjoy my Colossal Squid, which today is 372 days old, weighs 170kg and has traveled 3348 km. Once a week or so I take a relaxing minute to check out its latest adventures. It provides a very pleasant learning experience with a connection to the very deep world out there.

Congratulations on designing an informative and captivating exhibit.

Thanks “Squid Lover” – there is still heaps we don’t know about colossal squid, and giant squid.

By the way, the ‘San Aspiring’ is back down in the Ross Sea, Antarctica – the home of the colossal squid – now that the new toothfishing season is underway. You can follow the Captain’s Blog here. It would be good to know if they have seen any sign of colossal squid so far.

I think this is great for people who want to learn more about the giant squid. It is now my favorite animal and I like to read more about them. Also, to “sick of squid”, there is never enough of learning about a beautiful creature. We don’t even know that much and there is so much more to learn. Thanks.

Those giant squid are continuing to bite near the 9-Mile Bank. Seaforth Sportfishing is offering trips daily leaving at 4 p.m. on the New Seaforth. Squid are ranging from 20 to 50 pounds.

Seriously, though, I really would like to see the squid as soon as I’ve saved enough money to go to NZ…
