hunter is an expert on these delicate ocean dwellers. he's been following the species ping tied of my coffee to fit off for 20 years. how quick culture requires patience and a delicate touch. that's because every culture code begins with a grafting procedure that mimics what would normally be a natural process. we don't want to over stress them this. this operation, of course, has quite a bit of stress, but we try to handle this gently as we can. they are living animals. that's why, you know, they're kept with their quickly washed clean. they'll go through this process very fast and then be back into a recovery tank and then take it back out to the see the, the pseudo dano is the most important member of the team. he carries out the crossing procedure on your study, which induces health formation by imitating a natural process. first px truck. it's
