The sea grasses that grow in our local bays are a very critical part of the environment that nourishes our marine life.  These grasses provide protection for small fish, shrimp, etc.  In turn, the game fish that most fisherman seek feed on the marine life protected by these grasses.  Redfish Bay has signs posted warning boaters to stay clear of sea grass areas.  More information on this critical bay feature is available in the Aquarium.  Located on the east side of the Aquarium is a tank that simulates living sea grass and is shown below.  This tank typically contains seahorses and pipefish.
