New School Year!

It's crazy to think that it's time to start another school year. Mr. Litvinoff helped start MSMHS 15 years ago. He joined LEARN in 2011 before the building was even completed and helped put MSMHS Aquaculture on the map. Mr. Guyot joined the team 10 years ago and immediately elevated the lab with his immense amount of marine science knowledge.

Together, Guyot and Litvinoff continue to push the boundaries of aquaculture and education. Stay tuned for some really cool projects they have planned this year!

I was going through the camera and found this photo of a GORCHEST gold barb! Not sure who took it. Either Alanna or Charlie. Who took it? Good job. A+. Heck I’ll give it a ✅➕! Gold Star ⭐️ even. Standing ovation! Round of applause! 👍! Ok! Decent! But for real let me know who took this photo thanks.

MSMHS in The Keys: Day 3

We end our trip with a stop at the lab where took valuable time out of his day to show us around. Coral Morphologic does an amazing job mixing coral science, conservation, art and education.

The lab was amazing. Tanks were packed full with corals from all over the world. Colin and his team work incredibly hard and you could see it in the tanks as the corals were growing up the glass and to the surface of the water.

One of the highlights was the native coral lab. There they are growing native species which will hopefully be out planted soon in the Port of Miami. Be sure to follow along on their journey as there are so many cool projects on the horizon. Also, check out the which is a live feed in the Port of Miami. You will see some amazing fish and corals there

MSMHS in the Keys: Day 2

Today we traveled to Islamorado to visit our friend at the . At their coral nursery, they are focused on growing native Atlantic corals that will be eventually be planted out in the ocean.

Justin and the team showed us some new techniques they are trying to encourage faster growth, ways they are trying to make corals more resilient and we also talked about the challenges of working with species that are in such dire condition in the wild. Additionally, we discussed ways that might be able to support their efforts by running similar experiments in our lab in Connecticut.

Their work was truly inspiring and gave us hope to the future of Atlantic reefs. If you want to support their efforts, be sure to check out their social media pages. Stay tuned for more....

MSMHS in the Keys: Day 1

Our mission, to find and learn about coral restoration from the experts. Today we visited the . The owner, Jamie, took valuable time out of his day to meet with our team.

We discussed the aquarium hobby, how to best train the next generation of aquarists, and the differences between aquaculture and mariculture corals.

His shop is beautiful, the tank are immaculate, and his passion for the hobby was infectious. The Florida Keys are lucky to have him and this is a relationship that we will continue to grow!
