Seabase Conditions as of 7.20.2008
Dive in Utah- with tropical fish It is hot, and the water feels good!. The "vis" in White rocks is 6 feet, and about 8 feet on the bottom. In Habitat Bay, it's a bit better. It seems the idea for bubbling large amounts of air into water for clearing the algae wasn't working... we're trying another plan in our quest for more consistent clarity and it might be working..-keep watch! In the Abyss, vis is between 7 and 8 feet, and there is a school of bangai cardinal fish swimming around, and... it is much warmer. The fish like to nibble romaine or long leafy red lettuce out of your fingers, so if you want, bring some heads of lettuce to feed them- or buy some lettuce from us, (if we haven't run out), but, please- they won't eat iceberg lettuce.
