The Firefly Squid is a squid that shines along its body with a length of 5 centimeters. They are always found at sea depths from 200m to 600m.
In the night of 12th of March, alot of these creatures were seen along the coast of Niigata prefecture in the city of Sado. These creatures tend to lay their eggs at shallow depths. Those who were not able to go back to the sea became stuck along the coast of Niigata and illuminated the coast with blue color during the night.
People who took some of these squids said that, "I think we can collect more than 10kg of them".
A person in an aquarium in Niigata prefecture said that, "The Firefly Squid lay their eggs until around April. I think we can see alot of them until then."
