[vitaldefect001]

who's seen this?
i watched it tonight...
and wow it was really informing and i leard a few things through it...
anyways what did u guys think about it, and what do you think about the "C.O.T.'s"?
it was also kind depressing seeing all the dead corals like that...

it also set me up to be sympothetic and makes me wanna grow my corals faster, and put them back in the ocean

just wanted to see what you guys thaught...

if you havent seen it yet... it'll back on a few times tonight, and early tomarrow morning on the discovery science channel... so go set your DVR's or set up ur VCR's to record it, it's a good show...

peace

I have seen it about a month ago. It is unnerving that the reefs are being devoured because of agricultural runoff the survival rate of the young crowns is much greater.The reef has no chance.

Yeah but those posidion trumpet (or what ever they are called) are awesome!

I did a term paper on the crown of thorns in my tropical marine ecology class. i am trying to figure out how to post it in a readable way on this forum, and also a paper on zooxanthellae clades and characteristics (working with Dr. Coffroth who's lab works w/zoox).

I think you guys would find them interesting
more too come
