Grouper Reef

Low-profile concrete reef mimicking natural grouper ledges, with flanged base and EcoSystem habitat discs; 7.3 x 6.8 ft base, 5.6 ft relief.

Description

The Grouper Reef is designed to mimic the low-relief limestone outcroppings common in the Gulf of Mexico that grouper and other demersal species such as red snapper use for shelter and feeding. Its low profile provides shaded void space and horizontal complexity.

Key features

  • Flanged base deflects currents to reduce settling, scouring and subsidence on sandy or mixed-bottom substrates
  • Suited to hurricane-prone locations
  • EcoSystem discs integrated into the top add vertical relief and microhabitat
  • Deployable standalone, in larger reef complexes or in custom reef plans

Applications

Habitat for grouper, red snapper and other demersal species in artificial reef programs.
