Hyas and Stenorhynchus

In closeups and extreme closeups we watch two small species of marine crustaceans the slender longlegged stenorhynchus and the clumsy shortlegged hyas To blend in both cover themselves with found objects such as algae and sponges We watch them move eat greet each other and fight They have small mandibles and large claws Near them are spirograph worms 6 inches long with a plume of branchiae that fan out like exploding fireworks We see vibrating cilia 0001 mm long on the branchiae sending food toward the mouth at the plumes center Chopins music and an offscreen narrator suggest were watching a ballet
