Afcd senior fisheries officer ( fisheries management ) dr leung siu - fai said today ( october 19 ) , " 15 , 000 green grouper and 15 , 000 red fish fingerlings are being released at the artificial reef sites in yan chau tong and hoi ha wan marine parks . the area provides a suitable habitat for fish growth and adequate protection from commercial fishing activities . 渔护署高级渔业主任（渔业管理）梁肇辉博士今日（十月十九日）表示：我们在印洲塘和海下湾海岸公园的人工鱼礁区，投放青斑和红鱼的鱼苗各一万五千尾。
The ecological value of the area has already been recognized with the country and marine park board endorsing a proposal for a marine park there in 2002 . however , designation of the park has yet to occur , and even within the existing marine park for dolphins commercial fishing still occurs 早在2002年，渔农自然护理署已将该地建议划为海岸公园，肯定其生态价值可惜该范围至今仍未正式成为海岸公园，更甚的是在为保护海豚而辟建的海岸公园内，人类仍可进行商业捕鱼活动。
" the effectiveness of artificial reefs , as a resource enhancement device , has been clearly demonstrated by the deployment of artificial reefs in three marine parks in hong kong in the past few years . bio - diversity and abundance of commercial fishes found around the artificial reefs are much higher than those observed in nearby natural rocky shore areas 过去数年，渔护署在三个海岸公园敷设人工鱼礁，结果清楚显示人工鱼礁在增加渔业资源方面的成效。人工鱼礁四周的生物多样性及有商业价值鱼类的数量，均比在附近的天然岩岸区所见的高许多，至今在人工鱼礁共录得超过一百三十五个鱼类品种。
