Mysterieous Coral Killer Unmasked - Fresh Catch Friday

Friday, April 3, 2009

Unbeknownst to the hundreds of visitors, a mysterious killer lurked at Newquay Blue Reef Aquarium. Aquarists found evidence of violent attacks to the coral reef display, often entire pieces cut in half. Despite the two-week stake out of the exhibit, and multiple traps, the killer began claiming fish as victims. The Aquarium was forced to take the exhibit apart, rock by rock. Halfway through the exhibit they discovered:


CASE #608-2741

Name: Barry

Species: Sea Worm

Length: 4'0"

Last Seen: Newquay Blue Reef Aquarium


At the time of his capture, Barry was armed and dangerous. He is covered with thousands of stinging bristles, which are capable of inflicting permanent numbness. After biting through a 20 lb fishing line, the perpetrator was finally lured out with fish scraps. Currently, Barry is being held in solitary confinement in a tank, safely away from any potential victims.
