I think you've got the right idea here, but I do also think it's included in the spirit of the project and suggested name! Here's how I parsed it out and connected the two, maybe you'll see it similarly! I kind of like that the first boat they used to tip the scales back the other way, the first domino to fall if you will, resulted in the domino fish being the first resident and as a result the potential name of the first ship on the front lines of the project. It's effect will be the flourishing reef, will it not? This already being a colloquial term for the beginnings of a large scale change gives me the feeling the suggestor of the name did bake it into their suggestion. I do believe they have successfully evoked the thought they were going for in both you and I.
As an Indonesian, I've been thinking, "Will Indonesia has its own Mossy Earth?" And I couldn't be more happier when I saw your community post and this video. Thank you, Mossy Earth, for doing this ❤
That is amazing to hear my friend! I have a lot of love for Indonesia, its a beautiful place filled with interesting people and of course wonderful wildlife. I hope we can work there for many many years :) - Cheers, Duarte
It's fitting that a domino fish was the first to move in. Hopefully the first domino in a chain reaction that'll lead to more animals moving in. Keep up the good work, guys!
I think the boat should be named after the reef resident, the little domino damsel fish "Little Domino." Keep up the great work. You guys are always doing such amazing projects!
That's wild, I went snorkeling in nusa penida yesterday and found those racks that the corals grow on and thought how cool. Just came back home and saw this video and thought that looks familiar.😅
Other people have Mr Beast, and I have Mossy Earth. I had to wait to watch the video to understand why people kept saying Domino, and then the tears came…thanks for making a 35yo man feel awe in this delicate world. Thank you for being beautiful, generous people.
That means a lot to me and the rest of the team. Thank you for sharing man! It can be quite a long and difficult process to setup these projects and keep mossy earth moving forward so its really motivating to read comments like this! - Cheers, Duarte
Hey! You should add Indonesia in the title or thumbnail. We Indonesian often randomly clicks videos with our country on it. Who knows, this could get millions of videos just like on other channel that did similar thing :)
@@braydonwooleyvlogs4832 Indonesia's the fourth largest country anyway. its worth pandering to them for a video or two. I kinda hope Mossy Earth comes to North America someday, but we already have a lot of protected land.
True, but only 30% English speaking (just looked it up). I could see pandering to USA might work but ultimately I would argue being ambiguous over specific will help the campaign overall
@@braydonwooleyvlogs4832 Some channels that have Indonesia as their title often becomes the best performed videos. For example, PBS Eons (an English paleontology channel) video about Indonesia have 18 million views, while most of their vids has 1-3 mil views.
"Domino" is a great name - I'd never have thought of it! As well as being the first inhabitant, there's the promise of a domino effect. And what a lovely little fish it is, too!❤
As a Mossy Earth member, thank you so much for this project! I have been on several expeditions in this area and have seen the destruction (and also human wounds) of blast fishing first hand. These are the most diverse coral reefs I have ever encountered and seeing them so pointlessly massacred is very painful. These sorts of projects, as well as those from OPWALL and others is exactly what this area needs. Also, please get Yudi some proper eye protection for the welding!
hey im from indonesia. i'm very happy to see mossy earth make project in indonesia. i hope this project can be successful. i really want participate in in mossy earth but with my current economic state i think it's hard to be a member, wish i can be a member soon after my economy condition getting better. hope you enjoy ur time in indonesia
This video summarize why I love being mossy earth member, we are not only restoring nature but also providing jobs in the process. This is very important part, there is so much businesses and jobs that destroy or exploit nature so we as humanity need radical shift into different system- one that provide jobs and businesses opportunities that restore and protect nature 💚🌳🐝🦋
Sorry its been a tough 54 days between videos. Many other obligations both personal and work related kept me from editing and when I did I remade the full story so it took an extra 2 weeks past the already delayed deadline. Hopefully I can get back on schedule now! - Cheers, Duarte
Seconding "Domino" as a name for the boat like many others have said! It's so cute and really reminds us of who we're helping! Would be very sweet with a little illustration of the fish right next to the name as well! Keep up the good work!
I'm immediately invested in the life of that little fish! What an amazing first look at the changes you're creating. I loved hearing the joy in your voice as you talked about your new little friend.
Always upsetting to hear that it's only government oversight holding back a project, but glad to see the team using it as an opportunity to get all the prep work done. Excited to see the progress of this one compared to some other coral methods that had varying levels of success. I think that little fishy says this bodes well!
There's plenty of space around their current test area. They may have put more in for further testing. If not, definitely worth some more testing while they wait, eh?
I don't have a name for the boat (although "Domino" or similar appears to be popular), but I do have two ideas of how your guys could be making the foundations easier/faster. Instead of welding six separate bars to the pre-bent portions, they could bend one hexagonal section of the right width, suspend it, and weld the open trapezoid portions into it. The other idea is to dunk the foundations in epoxy and then dunk them again in sand (which appears to be partially implemented from what you've shown). Hope this helps.
What you are doing in this video is the exact reason why I'm studying Biology right now at university. I've been struggling but seeing this reminds me of why the struggle will be worth it in the long run. One day, a few years from now I hope te be part of a project like this, keep it up!!!
Just make sure you only introduce native corals. In Hawaii recently non native coral had to be removed after it was found someone had been placing on a local reef.
I sure love these people's videos. They warm up, and keep my old heart going strong. They're doing tremendous and magnificent work, no exageration! May MANY blessings always be with them.
I agree... it scares me too! However, we are not in Indonesia to preach on how others should do things. We simply contracted this independent shop who has many other customers and I think we have to respect how they want to do things. As far as our team is concerned (Yudi, Chansa and the divers) we take all the necessary precautions. Hope that makes sense! - Cheers, Duarte
As a rewilder, its those magical moments when you see that life has moved in, to what you have built (a home for them, a future for us all), that makes it all worthwhile. It doesn't take a lot of work, money or time, it takes passion & perseverance (against all the naysayers). So just do it. Let be your legacy.
When the metal rusts and the epoxy and solder break down, how will that affect the coral living on the structures? Was that a constraint in choosing materials? The biochemistry behind this is fascinating 🙂
I think they're steel, not pure iron. An online blurb on coral spider structures is that they are rust-treated steel, covered with resin (they mentioned epoxy in the video). Rusting iron, like from sunken ships, can be dangerous, as it can fuel a phase shift, the growth of sea anenome called Corallimorph, that outbreed and eat coral. This is called a Black Reef. Steel does not raise issues, as long as toxic paints are removed from the ships, like when decommissioned ships are deliberately sunk to create artificial reef structures.
That little domino fish just gave me so much hope. This is such an amazing progress, thanks to everything who makes it possible and thank you Mossy Team for taking over this huge adventure
I love, Love, LOVE how you constantly show real scientists doing real field work, you don't shy away from the worries and tensions while still bringing hope and happiness...and you do all of it with a wonderful transparency that invites everyone to enjoy the efforts, plus help add to them in the future. Cheers, Mossy Earth! (Also, I voted for Domino, too.)
Glad to see you guys buy a boat to facilitate coral. Definitely do a localized version of this whole project for Indonesia. Labor like that isn't affordable in the US, but for a US/Canada Mossy Earth, I think groups of paid staff working with volunteers can do a lot. Get local school kids on field trips into nature. One of the local nature centers wouldn't even let them walk off the path. Which is fair, they get a lot of classes, but a local Mossy Earth chapter can take smaller groups of kids to many different nearby wild areas to minimize impact.

This is absolutely amazing and it gives us hope here in Cozumel. My wife and I do the maintenance work (habitat cleaning) in efforts to help the coral colonies here get to a point of self-sustainability. Each week we volunteer with our toothbrushes to keep the macroalgae down. Thank you for involving your team in projects like this because it is very important and necessary! You should name the boat Gus after a puddingwife wrasse we became friends with here in Cozumel
I live in Bali. Id like to say the coral reef is heartbreaking but there is no coral reef and what is left is dying. I love all of you. Thank you. I hope one day to be able to be part of such an initiative. ❤❤❤
I teared up seeing Domino. As an enviro scientist undergrad, its so easy to get weighed down by how big the problems are. Watching these videos keep me going ❤
You could name the ship Vingilot, it is from JRR Tolkien's writings, a ship that sailed west from Middle-earth to bring hope and salvation to elves and men, and later was lifted into heavens and became a morning star
"The Spirit of Coral" or "Coral Spirit(s)". Late boat name entries :) You guys rock! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! & Thank You Great Spirit for Mossy Earth and Planet Wild and other organizations and groups doing similar work all over Lady Gaia!!!
Oh, that's amazing! We're in love with Nusas (Lembongan, Cenigan and Penida) and we've been there in April and planted our corals (named) at Gili Asahan - they have local program to recover nearby coral reefs - wonderful initiative. We will be in Lombok next April/May - will try to see first hand how it's going! All the best, another piece in the puzzle!
I got to scuba dive with my bio class in a massive reef. Their truly beautiful ecosystems and it would be devastating to see them disappear all together. God speed!
this made me so happy. i grew up in the midwest in America so I only have seen the ocean a handful of times. its one of the most beautiful places on earth so thank you
I agree with “Domino” or “Little Domino.” I’m always so proud to be a member. ❤ I also purchased some structures today via the email you sent. Always happy to help!
Suggested name for the boat: BARUNA; (Varuna in Sanskrit) god of the sea, rain, and skies who protects the people from tsunamis. I think it fits and hope you all do too. 😁
I love diving and have seen beautifull reefs and reefs reduced to rubble ( i was actually diving when someon closeby was fishing with dynamite). Glad you are doing this project and, as a member, I can be a small part in it

In honour of your first resident, The Domino.
YESS! That is a proper name! - Cheers, Duarte
I came here for this, a very cute name too
This would be a great name 🤝
I love this!
This or Little Domino as suggested by someone else! ❤
'The Domino Effect' would a a perfect name, not only to honour our lovely friend but as a symbol of what you hope to achieve with this project 😊
I love that in comparison to just domino!
I think you've got the right idea here, but I do also think it's included in the spirit of the project and suggested name! Here's how I parsed it out and connected the two, maybe you'll see it similarly!
I kind of like that the first boat they used to tip the scales back the other way, the first domino to fall if you will, resulted in the domino fish being the first resident and as a result the potential name of the first ship on the front lines of the project. It's effect will be the flourishing reef, will it not?
This already being a colloquial term for the beginnings of a large scale change gives me the feeling the suggestor of the name did bake it into their suggestion. I do believe they have successfully evoked the thought they were going for in both you and I.
i like domino but this is so much better lol
harapan, Indonesian for "hope"
I especially encourage an Indonesian name!
Great name Bram! - Cheers, Duarte
Hope being so key to this project makes sense too!! And the coral provides so much hope for the ecosystem!
Oh is that why the rhino is named that. oof

"Domino" after the first resident of the reefs!
YES! - Cheers, Duarte
Could we get an Indonesian translation or a local common name of the domino?
@@Lunac-s1p domino is domino in Indonesian
@@notusneo domino(dominus/dominae) is latin for domino (master, 1st, head of the house)
@@martinwinther6013 domino in Indonesian is more like the card game
I think the boat should be named after the reef resident, the little domino damsel fish "Little Domino."
Keep up the great work. You guys are always doing such amazing projects!
Little Domino really should be the name - or any variation on it. As a second option I will suggest Mossy McEarthface.
Little Domino sounds like an adorable name, and a great homage to that first little resident!
Honouring the little domino would be amazing! - Cheers, Duarte
little Domino → fish

They are only using loose coral chunks broken off from reefs around these ones, so they should be fine!
Coral reefs cover only 0.01% of the ocean floor, not 1%. This is why it is even more important to protect them. Awesome job you guys do, keep it up

That sounds so beautiful, a combination of ties to the water, and protection!
Why do I always cry when I watch your content,....thank you!
I love diving and have seen beautifull reefs and reefs reduced to rubble ( i was actually diving when someon closeby was fishing with dynamite). Glad you are doing this project and, as a member, I can be a small part in it
Thank you for the support! - Cheers, Duarte
out of curiosity, where did you witness this?
@@MossyEarth I need to check my logbooks but I think it was in Indonesia, near sulawesi/manado . Scary and very loud and illegal
Makes sense. It is a reducing problem but not one that is gone.
@@MossyEarth it was 10-20 years ago, but it really made an impression. And 1 brave dartfish left in an underwater dessert.
I've been a subscriber/member for a bit more than a year now. It's amazing how much Mossy Earth gets done.
