Testimonials from some of the participants and participating resorts and dive operations.

"Those who took part were seasoned divers with an existing interest in fish identification.

Our Fijian Staff very much enjoyed taking part and are keen to do more checks next year.  We ourselves gained reward from doing the surveys as it opened our eyes to the variety of butterflyfish that we previously overlooked.

We hope very much that the program happens in 2009."

An invitation was extended to 11 volunteers from Navatu to spend the day in Nukubalavu, to take part in The Great Fiji Butte rflyfish Count, alongside the staff and volunteers of the Greenforce Team.

The day consisted of several 30 minute snorkels along the Nasonisoni Passage. Each team consisted of two surveyors armed with an identification slate. The day was a good opportunity for the Greenforce volunteers and the Navatu volunteers to work together.
