Image of the set up used to filter out the environmental DNA (eDNA) from collected water samples. With steady hands, we poured seawater from the 1- or 2-liter bags into the plastic cups which were attached to the three mini gray podiums. The boxy machine on the right is what causes the water to be sucked through the sample cup filters and it makes a loud sound while it's running.
