Urchin hatchery munches its way toward a milestone, with the help of native limu
“We didn’t want to grow a non-native or invasive seaweed because we feared we might end up proliferating invasive seaweed out in the marine environment. So, they’re only fed native limu until they’re big enough to go out into the field and to begin eating invasive seaweed,” said David Cohen, urchin hatchery manager with the DLNR Division of Aquatic Resources.
