🪸🧡 coral planting days are always a good day 🧡🪸
we use the coral gardening concept by fragmenting corals colonies and attaching them to a rebar frame. This frames provides a solid substrate to which the coral can grow and a nice little habitat for fish to congregate underneath.

✨Happy World Sea Turtle Day 🐢. A day to celebrate these incredible prehistoric creatures. Sea turtles have been around for about 100 million years 🤯
Today, we have 7 species of sea turtles 🐢. Sadly, all 7 are vulnerable to extinction due to a plethora of human threats. Sea turtles have a unique lifecycle and at each of these phases they face challenges, for example, female sea turtles need to return to land to lay their eggs, however, with increased coastal development turtles can’t get to nesting beaches or are faced with dangerous objects such a roads, furniture 🪑and sea walls. Once the female returns to sea on whilst on land she is vulnerable to poaching, boat strikes and pollution such as oil from spills or micro plastics. The sea turtles once they hatch and make their way to the ocean are faced with predators such as domestic cats and dogs cats on the beaches. We can all play a part in the protection of sea turtles for example reducing single use plastics, using green energy and protecting turtle nesting beaches from development.
