But just because they're not young pop stars mean they don't have loyal fans. This woman is the local Britney Spears. In fact, many people buy bunches of flowers to give to her. I spent two RMB and look at the huge bouquet I got. What I didn't know was that there's a system of flower recycling. Just after you give the flowers, a person will bring them back and resell them. Hey, those are mine!

Host: I heard there's one worth $80,000.

Besides shellfish, the museum boasts an impressive collection of coral. Coral can live up to 1,200 years, but usually die prematurely due to environmental destruction
It's rare to find so many different types of coral in one place, since they exist in many parts of the world. You might also have to swim to the depths of the ocean. This one looks like it's waving its hand to say hello.
The colors of the coral are often so striking that you might think the lighting is playing tricks on your eyes. However, what you see is the natural color of the coral. The colorless lighting's main function is to allow coral photosynthesis.
This here is not coral, but a sea flower. It has a special relationship with the clownfish. They are mutually interdependent. The clownfish hides in the sea flower, since the sea flower is poisonous to many of the clownfish's predators, while the clownfish often finds food the sea flower. So, they're very good friends.
It is also called a sea anemone. Although it looks like a flower, it actually is a meat-eating animal that uses its poisonous tentacles to sting its prey and then pushes it into its mouth.
