Zebra Urchin Crab - [Zebrida adamsii]
TK2, Lembeh Strait, IndonesiaZebra Urchin Crabs have a commensal symbiosis relationship with urchins. The ends of their back legs are hooked so they can cling onto the Sea Urchins spines. The venom in the tips of this Radiant Sea Urchin [Astropyga radiata] can be extremely painful to humans. This is why many refer to them as fire urchins.

How archival are Metal Prints?
Images printed with the MetalPrints process will last for generations when displayed indoors and out of direct sunlight. Like any fine art print, MetalPrints should not be exposed to direct sunlight or high outdoor temperatures. MetalPrints have an additional benefit over giclee or photographic processes in that they are waterproof and have an ultra-hard scratch resistant coating. The archival value of a print should be judged not only by its resistance to degradation by U.V. light and ozone exposure, but also to moisture and surface damage. When these factors are brought into the equation, MetalPrints are an excellent way to preserve an image.
