Abstract

A modular habitat apparatus for attaching and anchoring aquatic life hiding units thereto comprises a weighted apparatus comprising a mat or platform for submersion in waterways wherein aquatic life hiding units may be attached thereto. The present invention further comprises a modular system of one or more habitat apparatuses having aquatic life hiding units attached thereto. Moreover, a plurality of habitat apparatuses may be fastened together and installed horizontally to cover a relatively large area, and/or connected together both horizontally and vertically to create three-dimensional habitats for aquatic life. Systems and methods of making and using the same are further provided.
