This is a coral nursery. A large artificial reef built undersea on the ocean floor. Newly transplanted coral fragments have been suspended from it to allow them to grow. One Batfish, aka Longfin Spadefish, has gathered. Coral reefs worldwide are suffering damage at an alarming rate. Mainly due to global warming, pollution and ocean acidification. Artificial reefs are being built in an attempt to revive and restore corals. Location is Viking Bay, Phi Phi Le, Krabi province, Thailand.
