Here's the list of fish that's covered in this session:
In 1993, a group of pioneering conservationists took a slate on a dive in Key Largo, and started a program that would become the largest marine life sightings database in the world. Twenty-fice years later, REEF's Volunteer Fish Survey Project (VFSP) is a valuable tool for studying the oceans. The project provides insight into the health and biodiversity of our oceans, and is a key way that REEF members can make a difference in today's ever changing marine environment.
We will be offering a free Fish ID Course on our trip to the Flower Gardens (offshore texas; closest reef formation to us) on June 29-July 1, 2018. The trip includes potentially 7 dives, accomodations, food, tanks, airfills.
Want to improve your fish knowledge? Join us each month for a free Fish Identification Class in REEF's Interpretive Center, led by REEF Volunteers Carlos and Allison Estape.
