The proud Texas Clipper
has been reefed,
creating a diving haven...
What will I see?
One Fish, Two Fish
Dale Shively, coordinator of the Artificial Reef program, reports that within a year of the sinking, the vessel will develop a marine habitat of barnacles, corals, sponges, clams, bryozoans and hydroids and will attract fish and mobile invertebrates.
Red Fish, Blue Fish
Species seen on area rigs include barracuda, ling, jacks, spadefish, sheepshead, butterflies, blennies, turtles, and more.
Reef Will Develop Over Time
This ecosystem will mature over a number of decades, offering more every year to the sport diving enthusiast.
