Bamboo coral is added to the bio box on the sled of the ROV. Samples of bamboo coral are placed in the slotted section so we can tell one individual from another. Other species are put into the larger box at the right. Numbered push cores on the front of the drawer are used to collect sediment samples. Image courtesy of NOAA/MBARI 2006.
