Great Job !

One of four reef balls is on its way to its new spot .

Resident

We often say not to polute the sea, and for sure we shouldn’t…

I did notice that the marine life doesn’t really bother about that, as long as they could take benefit of the situation. Simple example (the above picture), that is a chain use as an anchor. Rusted by the sea water and yet turn-out to be a place for some to stay.

We do hope that with the new reef balls place on the area, it will attract some others to stay and live.

“Home”

Eventhough they look good on dry land, these reef balls will give a whole new meaning for the environment.

Due to low visibility, the process on putting down the reef ball can’t be upload here.

The BIG Day

After a long delay due to some un-explained reason, we finally decided to put the reef balls in the lagoon.

Yup … Today is “the” day .. our attempt to “plant” it on our own way. As simple as possible, yet hope that it

Preparation

Staff of Euro-Divers happy with their first reef ball.

The start of a new beginning ..

The Birth

It all started as we share a common interest in admiring and appreciating the beauty of the underwater world.

The lagoon itself is a protected area which already has an abundance of marine life. The creation of an artificial reef would make it more enriching and beautiful.

Thus, we embarked on a journey of giving the lagoon a new birth, a genesis, of an underwater world that we all admired so much.
