Systems for securing flora or fauna fragments to an underwater substrate and methods related thereto

A method for securing a fragment module to a substrate, said method comprising:

• obtaining a fragment module of flora or fauna;
• obtaining a securing clip comprising:
• an enclosure body including one or more sidewalls and a cavity defined between one or more of said sidewalls;
• one or more fragment securing tangs extending into said cavity;
• one or more substrate securing tangs extending from said enclosure body and away from said cavity;
• receiving, within said cavity, at least a portion of said fragment module;
• engaging said fragment module with one or more of said fragment securing tangs to prevent and/or impede removal of at least a portion of said fragment module from securing clip;
• positioning said securing clip into a substrate aperture defined within said substrate;
• and
• engaging, using one or more of said substrate securing tangs, said securing clip with a substrate aperture sidewall to prevent and/or impede removal of said securing clip from said substrate aperture.

A securing clip comprising:

• an enclosure body including a first end, a second end, and one or more sidewalls that extend between said first end and said second end and that is designed to at least partially surround at least a portion of a fragment module when said fragment module is disposed within a cavity defined between one or more of said sidewalls;
• one or more fragment module securing tangs extending from one or more of said sidewalls into said cavity such that when at least a portion of said fragment module is placed within said cavity, at least a portion of said fragment module securing tang is designed to engage with said fragment module and prevent and/or impede removal of at least a portion of said fragment module from said cavity;
• one or more substrate securing tangs extending from said enclosure body and away from said cavity and each of said substrate securing tangs being designed to prevent and/or impede removal of said enclosure body positioned inside a substrate aperture defined within a substrate;
• and
• one or more tabs extending from said first end and away from said cavity, each of said tabs including a raised portion extending away from said cavity and that is elevated from a portion of each of said tabs.
