About the Site:
Aquaculture is the utilization of water for the cultivation of fish for use as human food source
 
The wabank lake (previously Miller's Quarry) is now the site for our aquaculture project.  The once stagnant and murkey water system now boasts visibilities of 30 ft. plus (weather dependent).  Precise testing and natural water treatments cleansed the water, but oxygen levels were insufficient to sustain aquatic life.
 
An ingenious, but logical solution was implemented that would not require the expensive and unsightly electric equipment traditionally used in aquaculture.  SCUBA Divers offer the final element necessary in balancing the ecosystem.
 
Ultimately this process may be replicated in underdeveloped countries deficient in food availibility
