I have so much respect for biologist helping our oceans and marine animals recover.
I agree, i really appreciate them replanting all that shit so i can go bomb fishing again ^_^ . EZ MONEY!
@@WhirlwindHeatAndFlash. The bombs will blow on you if you dare to do that.
Titan Slayer poor choice of words
true. but you can help the world too. Not only biologist, scientist etc. It all starts by yourself.

coral gardening is now on the bucket list
Get an ocean tank and do it at home. You will be preserving coral species and help stop people harvesting them from the wild. Plus you get to look at a coral reef everyday in your own home.
get reef tank. theyre basically fragging corals
Ocean tank with corals would look nice.
@@thebman80 it'd be more beneficial to do it in the wild, whats the point of preserving it if we can oh so easily fix the thing that'll preserve it indefinitely?
@@thebman80 please dont. I think only professonals should do this or the corals will be taken by everyone and there will be no corals left in the wild. The corals are already in decline
There should be an annual holiday in which people help plant coral.
i would so love that!
Arif Khan I would too.
Ocean Day. Like Earth Day, but for the Ocean.
Agree! If you want to join us.... feel free!
that would be epic
Yup I’ll bring the coral I grow in my house! 😂
this is such a smart idea I would love to do this and help the organisation that do this
I'm one of the resort worker and we are planning to do coral planting this year..@ our resorts here in Fiji
Which Fiji resorts do this?
Kalesita Vakamosiyalo Godbless to your team!thank you for saving our planet!!!
It's interesting, but able-bodies are not the limiting factor in this. I tried volunteering (unpaid) for several programs like this and was told over and over again that they didn't need any more help. Looking back (or maybe forward?) I should have started my own all-volunteer coral rehabilitation program.
@@kalesitavakamosiyalo1984 how did it go?
Almost 10 years later, I hope these people still doing this work to save more and more coral.
Wish you all health and happiness !!!
bye everyone, moving to fiji to become a coral gardner
Fresh_Water you'll have to change your ID to Salt Water 🙏😂
you can do it from your own home
*Coral herder. They are animals.
This should be done with every struggling reef
There might just be too many of them out there, but people are on it... we started a Coral Nursery in Myanmar recently....
Corals can breed.
So if they could begin a scientific program in the hope of breeding tougher coral species that could survive some changes in the changing climate.
The money for that kind of research could still be a problem.
The problem is the temperature of the water itself. Warmer oceans lead to coral bleeching, which is really serious
@@triccele Breeding corals to be hardier in higher temps and lower ph would help, that's why most corals die and some don't. Some are hardier than others. We need more sensitive corals to be bred to be hardier by fragging them and subjecting slowly to a more hostile environment. Via Higher temps lower Ph and different current speeds in a tank. Then we can try releasing them after a couple generations and see how they do.
@@OST1350 Just so you know Climate does not affect what goes on in the Ocean. the main thing that affects what goes on in the Ocean is the Earth's core which Changes its temperature witch the Earth's core is Heating up witch why the Ocean temperatures are rising and why the Coreal is not able to survive in these Heated environments. Climate has nothing to do with it.
How would you like to have "Coral Gardener" on your resume lol
You're hired!
Curtis Hammer can’t be worse than weed farmer haha 😂...
@@breAnnasmama See weed farmer?? I love them, can't live without my seaweed...
Amazing work! Beautiful corals❤
Amazing stuff really! We just started our own little Coral Garden and Coral Nursery - the First on in Myanmar and things are evolving already! They are amazing creatures, tough in many ways but so fragile in others....
Project Manaia can you help restore our coral reef as child growing i remember it full of life and at night it has vibrant colors now 75% have gone
that’s great! Hope that this can happen more often and every where on Earth so that these coral will grow back strong and beautifully.
I'm Belgian and live far away from Myanmar... but i really like to say thank you for what you are doing !!
Dr.Strange talking about corals....awesome.
Konata Izumi well, its strange
Omg😅
Lol, the untold story😂
Well, he needs to keep the lights going when he is not fight villains
Konata Izumi XD
WOW! Simply, *BEAUTIFUL* Happy to know that someone is taking good care of the Coral Reef. Thank you so much. 💙
Wow I didn't know healthy coral was naturally that colorful
look up some reef tanks. They can be very colorful
Its their Symbiodinium
Its a must see for anyone who wants to add to their bucket list
coral and reef fish are some of the most colourful animals in the world
Most aren't, though of course some are. I suspect they go out of their way to pick the colorful ones since those can also be sold in the aquarium trade.
WE NEED AN UPDATED VIDEO ABOUT THIS, SO AMAZING!
This film is of our work in Fiji. We need your urgent help spreading the news... the largest coral die off in recorded history is in progress and is spreading- we offer coral gardening of surviving bleaching resistant corals as a partial solution. Please visit Corals for Conservation on Facebook Also support our urgent plea THANKS! www.globalgiving.org/projects/emergency-response-to-massive-coral-bleaching/
+Austin Bowden-Kerby PS: this film is of our corals in Moturiki, Fiji, filmed by Emma Robens.
Austin Bowden-Kerby in cutting the coral (in this video) are you using the "microfragmentation" process advocated by Dr. Vaughan, or is that something different?
Im only now learning about this and I will do my part to help spread your work. Thank you so much.
"The largest coral die off in history is in progress" *posted 2 years ago* makes me sad to think where the coral are at now :(
Technically it isn't a garden, It's actually more like raising livestock since coral are animals.
technically :)
but it's also technically more like gardening because they stay in one place, grow and look more like plants or fungi than cows...
Why is this not a BIGGER picture on the main stream media? as a diver, this whom understand the value of coral. This is a HUG step...how does one get involved?
This is awsome hopefully it spreads globally.
Faith in humanity restored.
lian not so fast
Nope it's still in the making and anyway each time they start something good they also start something bad.
@@blackpyxy9583 Lol your talking as if your not human. I'm so sick of you human pessimists and all you do is shit talk you own species and look and the negative and never look at all the good that has been Brought by humanity.
gundamcollector77 tell me besides our great selfish accomplishments what else is there? I’ll wait.The thing is we are indeed advanced as a species but we got greedy. Humans are literally the worst lol
@@blackpyxy9583 So you telling me there is no good period in humanity? There are no good parents out there who will do anything to make sure there kids, There are no people out there that hate seeing nature Destroyed and put forth a lot of time and effort to correct and prevent it from happening, There no good people who simply take 2 second out of there day to simley try and make someone else smile because they can tell there having a bad day. Sir i don't know what you have been threw in your life but if i open a dictionary and find the term Pessimist i'm pretty sure i will your user name name as an example. Also if "Humans are simply the worst" that also includes you as well so how about instead of focusing and letting the negative rule you look at the positive for once and staed of contributing to more Negative thinking.
This making immense respect to those people who put their effort for such an incredible work .
I wish i could also be one among them.
You can
to all the gardeners, Thank you
Teaching fishermen to be farmers of the sea. Anyone can understand that. I'm also delighted at how incredibly colorful this coral is. The colors are electric!
The most beautiful sight I have ever seen! Thank you for giving me hope!

We should treasure these people, thanks for existing, and a warning for us all to preserve environment
Corals are beautiful. They are so full of colours.
Thank you for your kind service to the planet. Much blessings to all the team
Huge Respect!
Bless you coral gardeners!!!👍👍👍
LGU Tangalan here in Aklan does this year round since 2012. Thousands of corals have been planted back to the marine sanctuary to date since the launching of the project and local fishermen benefited much due to the increase in fish catch. Thanks to the volunteers from different sectors. A group of 10 may contact the MENRO for scheduling of the planting activity. It's fun and fulfilling!
its like succulent propagating. Amazing. I want to be a sea Gardener.
мечтай и ононируй молча
Some people are really important in this world and im not talking about justin bieber!! These guys are my idols!!!
Thanks guys
Not all heros wear capes. This biologists deserve the best from humanity
This actually made me cry, I have not felt this hopeful about saving our planet in LONG time!
Omg! 6months and they all look beautiful already! Respect ❤
Clever idea and really simple. Good for the environment and good for the locals, win win really.
It pleases me to see this
The growth of those coral colonies (coral are colonial animals, not plants) takes years. The patience and effort for something as beautiful as this is amazing.
These people are doing gods work hats off to you guys much respect
this should be the new tourist attraction, not destroying them, but planting them!
This could be a great help for those countries that experienced coral devastation. I hope this will be implemented to different parts of the world.
Thank you so much to all the marine biologists!!!
I love this
salute all the biologist, marine specialist and fishermen regarding this valuable work
Its so trippy to think that this is just another form of gardening
mad respect
wow so much amazed and happy after seeing this
That's wonderful, beautiful.
So beautiful
Thank you
Amazing and beautiful work, hardworking guardians of our oceans ❤️
I need to know how the reef looks like now
yes
OMG it's so beautiful.
Glad to see some transplanting and rehabbing going on.
truly amazing!
Gorgeous gardens!
You guys are doing awesome work, thank you 👏🙏❤️
trop beau
this is amazing
If people would stop eating seafood, this wouldn’t happen.
Big props to the coral gardeners! 💪❤️
Nope. The climate catastrophe is wiping out masses of corals through temperature and more disastrous storms.
Thanks a lot for your great work.
Beautiful 😭
