In this photo taken on November 3, 2020, a 3D printer at the University of Hong Kong's (HKU) Department of Architecture is used to create a clay tile, designed to work as an artificial bed for corals to latch onto and thrive, being used as part of a research project by HKU's School of Biological Sciences in Hong Kong. - Around 84 species of coral are found in Hong Kong's waters, scientists say, more diverse than those found in the Caribbean Sea.
