O-oyster is designed from cradle to cradle, mixing oyster fragments and powders with natural seaweed gel to form a ring. The natural material will gradually be consumed over time, solving the problem of waste caused by plastic, polystyrene, and bamboo strips used in the past, and becoming an ecological reef substrate to nurture marine diversity. The oyster fields are arranged in a free series of outer grommets, and the nodding duck-type wave generator is used to effectively mitigate wave fluctuations to meet the need for stable waves for oyster farming in deep water.
