Excited to see this reef deployed today by @GreaterGeelong and @AlexGoad8. Funded by @DELWP_Vic we will be seeding it with the functionally extinct Australian flat #oyster for habitat restoration and coastal protection #livingshorelines

It's been 1 year since these @LivingSeawalls tiles were installed in Sawmillers Reserve! We've seen some amazing #algae #polychaetes #crustaceans #oysters and #gastropods hiding in all the textured tiles!
