The volunteers came up with a back saving device to float the reef ball mangrove pots into their final resting position on the nursery bed. By controling the water level of the nursery, a temporary flood stage was created to allow easy floating into place. After all the mangroves are in place, the nursery water levels will be returned to the lower level required for plant germination and growth.
