Shellers, the following bit of trivia may or may not be of interest
to you.
I thought it was awesome.
It is said that the most prolific species in the Animal kingdom is;
CRASSOSTREA gigas Thunberg
Giant Pacific Oyster
It may lay as many as 1,000 to the eighth power, eggs in one year.
That s One Septillion, (1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000).
And if all survived in five generations, the aggregate would be large
enough to make eight worlds like ours.
