A long-term workshop was performed at Lake Millstatt. The Robocoenosis biohybrid was placed in the lake for over a month, continuously gathering water quality data. Several aspects of the underwater setup were tested:

• Water-tightness of the robot

• Data gathering efficiency

• Animals' well-being within the setup

• Data gathering correctness
