Greetings and Happy New Year, Coral-listers,
We've posted a virtual tour of Conch Reef, just south of the Aquarius Undersea research laboratory, where my lab has been monitoring sponge populations since 1997. Hard coral cover is very low at this site, but populations of giant barrel sponges are increasing, despite occasional losses due to "sponge orange band".

Be sure to change settings (gear-wheel) to HD, and restart after buffering to get smoother play.
Enjoy!
