The air is consumed, the work is done. Just one last view of the reef and then up. In the faces of divers you can see that it is not only fun, but also work. But maybe it was worth it, the corals are growing

I was so busy finding coral pieces that I had lost sight of my two buddies. Suddenly they were gone. What do you do in such a situation? Well we were at 10 mter depth, so first a little higher, maybe I'll

Planting corals is teamwork. One diver cuts the packages of the two components of the glue, a second mixes them, the third diver places the glue on the concrete blocks and the 4 one places the coral pieces.

What looks a little bit like hard work is also strenuous. It's exhausting, because you should try as little as possible, otherwise the air is used up very quickly. On my first dive I sucked out the tank

This is another way to resettle corals. Nails are hammered into the rocks and corals are attached with cable ties, which hopefully will grow there. However, if one shows up and sees about 50 ships anchoring

Here is another video by creating a new coral bed. The corals are attached with a waterproof two-component adhesive. Whether this works will only be known in a year's time My video is at DLive

this was the first time for our students so deep, no failures, well prepared. My video is at DLive

Now the collected corals must be sorted by family. Corals of the same kind in one place grow faster or grow at all. One reason for this is the species of coral fish. Many fish species prefer their special

The first step to create such a coral pad is done. The concrete blocks lie as they should lie. Now, however, they still have to be connected, otherwise they would spread out during the next storm. These

If you cover so many concrete pads with corals, they will run out at some point. So we have to look for new corals, collect them and then plant them again. Such useless pieces of coral can be found in

Always fascinating to work in the middle of fish My video is at DLive

The team of the dinghi had forgotten to throw the required structural steel over our construction site. Now that other divers are down, it's too dangerous for that. So we have to bring the heavy iron down

Working underwater with a hammer is a challenge. The water absorbs most of the force and even steers the hammer according to his ideas. But you learn from it. My video is at DLive

The structural steel holds the individual concrete blocks together, even if there is a strong current or a storm stirring up the ground. Here we are only 12 meters deep. It's not hard work, but you have

finally into the water after all the briefings and exercises My video is at DLive

The last dive to complete the AOWD, as always very relaxed, but determined...in the AOSane Beach on Phuket. My video is at DLive

Teaching underwater has both advantages and disadvantages. You have to write everything down but nobody talks in between or has to go out for a pee. My video is at DLive

It looks so easy, but the first time with the diving equipment under water is something very special. After that you always...or never again. My video is at DLive

I met Frank many times at my beloved AO Sane beach, where he did his REscue Diver or simply snorkelled. With him it is always a relaxed diving, as this time too. My video is at DLive
