#4 Coral reefs grow beautifully and very quickly on sunken ships. A lovely offset for the reefs being destroyed by dynamite-laden fishermen in other parts of the oceans. Also, I understand that corals can actually be transplanted -- break off a bit of coral from an established reef, glue it to the new substratum, and watch it grow. No need to wait for nature to take its course...
