I came across this video on Facebook and figured you'd enjoy it as well. Shot with the GoPro.

    It wasn't really luck. Project SECORE is where some divers arrive during spawning season to capture the eggs and sperm in fine nets to settle out on frag disks. The corals grow out from that point, without taking any corals from the reef. Mitch Carl is one of the primaries on this project, I believe. Each year, they do more and this was from one of their dives.
