Frameworks placed in the sea

Our frameworks with different materials have been placed in the Carribbean Sea. The three frameworks are made of PVC pipes and different kinds of concrete. They are placed in a protected research area of the natural coral reef in Puerto Morelos. In the coming month, we will be monitoring which material attracts the most coral. So, to be continued...

Do you want to bet on which material attracts the most coral? That's possible in our coral lottery! You can get a ticket by donating to our crowdfunding (and choosing 'coral lottery' as a reward). The deadline for joining the lottery is at the beginning of January, so only a couple of days left to donate!

The pictures above depict the deployment process (carried out with the help of three divers from the local university of UNAM) and the final placement of the frameworks. Would you like to see more photos and videos? Follow us on Instagram: @reefieramaya.
