Adopting a coral
Adopting a coral will fund the maintenance and care of a unique coral colony in The Forever Reef Project collection. This includes regular health checks to ensure it thrives in our state-of-the-art holding facilities. Your fragment number will be sent to you, and you will be updated on what species your coral is, where it was collected, the environmental conditions from the wild, and its growth and health information as it grows.
Forever Reef Coral Expedition
A Forever Reef Project Coral Expedition is a specialised voyage to remote parts of the Great Barrier Reef. Here our team of marine scientists will collect, process and preserve coral samples that will be added to The Forever Reef Project collection, ensuring their long-term protection and providing a resource for ongoing reef research and restoration efforts. It’s through expeditions like these that we will ensure we safeguard all the coral biodiversity on the Great Barrier Reef.
