Can you tell us a bit about that, Charlie?
25:48
Yeah, so our major project at the minute is our shellfish revolution shellfish reef and basically back in the day there was heaps of native flat oyster reefs all over the Adelaide coastline and in about the 1840s to 1940s these got dredged, used for food and then completely wiped them out and now they're functionally extinct.

Basically what we're doing is trying to create reefs again and these reefs are really important for our recreational fish species like snapper, King George Whiting, squid and blue summer crab.
26:27
They create a foraging ground, they also create some shelter and also nursery for our favourite fish.
26:36
And this just means that also we're just building it off Largs Bay.
26:41
And they basically just create almost like similar to a bommie.
26:45
They will aggregate fish around it and will be really good for the recreational fishes later on.

Can you tell us how does it work? Do you work across all of the chapters? And then if I want to do or someone wants to get involved, how do they go about it?
