Description
This is a coral nursery. A small artificial reef built undersea on the ocean floor from broken rocks and rubble. Newly transplanted coral fragments have been planted in it to allow them to grow. Here we see new coral life growing. Coral reefs worldwide are suffering damage at an alarming rate due to global warming, pollution and ocean acidification. Artificial reefs are being built in an attempt to revive and restore corals. Location is Ko Haa archipelago, Krabi province, Thailand.
