And.....The Numbers Are In!!

Counting coral recruits!

The coral recruits have been counted with the help of several hard-working volunteers! After hours peering through microscopes the count is in, and we came to a total of 54594 recruits!!! That's a lot of coral babies!

A HUGE thank you to those that volunteered their time to help count the recruits, it couldn't have been done without you! THANK YOU:

As things are slowly winding down, the summer is rapidly drawing to a close, and another exciting season of coral spawning is complete, all of us here at SUNY Buffalo's BURR Lab would like to extend a big thank you to everyone who came down to Florida and helped make this year's efforts such a big success and a lot of fun!!
