Reef sponges facilitate the transfer of coral-derived organic matter to their associated fauna via the sponge loop (2017, background): “Due to high levels of pre- dation and intense competition for space and resources, the exploitation of other organisms as living habitat is a common strategy on coral reefs (e.g. Duffy 1992, Munday et al. 1997, Elliott & Mariscal 2001).”
Forcible eviction and prevention of recruitment in the clown anemonefish (2003, background): “…were collected at intervals of 1–2 days, a time period in which the actual settlement pattern could be modified to give rise to the observed settlement pattern (Booth, 1992; Elliott et al., 1995; Elliott and Mariscal, 2001; Holbrook and Schmitt, 1997; Schmitt and Holbrook, 1999b; Sweatman, 1988).”
Population impacts of collecting sea anemones and anemonefish for the marine aquarium trade in the Philippines (2005, background): “…has been observed within the anemonefish population on each anemone or colony of anemones in which a dominant breeding pair of adults restricts both the settlement of new recruits to the anemone and the growth of juvenile residents (Hattori 1991; Srinivasan et al. 1999; Elliott and Mariscal 2001).”
