Hi Laura. Have you tried hydrogen peroxide for sand dollars?
@SheriGallagher-r9b10 күн бұрын
So what about dried coral. Can it be collected or not? I have heard conflicting information.
@virtualshelling10 күн бұрын
I have spoken with several shelters and shell charters - no one I have spoken with has heard of restrictions collecting dried coral. I am waiting to hear back from FWC.

How do you locate sand dollar when they are still under the sand? Do they make a hump on the ground? How deep do they stay?
@virtualshelling18 күн бұрын
I show how they are found in the video! Sometimes they are buried sometimes they are just laying on the beach!

Hey Laura. Found out just this year that it's illegal to take coral off FL beaches. Just FYI. Thanks for your vids!
@virtualshellingАй бұрын
@@gingermackeen5741 per FWC, live coral is prohibited with exceptions on species and harvesting permits. “In the state of Florida there are specific rules governing the commercial, nonlethal harvest of marine life. Throughout the state of Florida, the collection of stony corals, fire corals, and the octocorals Gorgonia flabellum and G. ventalina (common sea-fans) is prohibited. The collection of octocoral species is restricted. The harvest of live-rock, substrate with living organisms attached, is illegal unless harvested at a licensed aquaculture area.” It’s always important to know state laws as well as county laws, and what species they pertain to!
@gingermackeen5741Ай бұрын
@@virtualshelling Apparently there are various views online about whether the FWC regulations mean just live or ALL coral. I've heard from several sources this year it's ALL. Very confusing. I would really like a definitive answer. Perhaps I'll email someone there. Thanks.

@@gingermackeen5741 The people who do SWF Beach Life and Florida Beach Walks videos both said they called state officials who confirmed that it was illegal to take both live and dead coral off the beach. I have a couple of vases of coral and had no idea that it was not legal to take it. It seems that these ladies had no idea that it was illegal until very recently either. I do not see why it is not on the sign that tells us no live shelling. I would guess that most people are not aware of this law.
