A "bonus" frame/cell I'm thinking of adding... if there's time,
deemed sufficient to be of interest. The surprising reversed situation
between what we are most collectively familiar with as land organisms
ourselves... That much of the "fixed carbon" life about us is in the
stages of adult, developmental age... Whereas, the bulk of biota in the
seas is in the form of larvae, sex cells... Hence the profusion of
filter-feeding species, and their abundance.
Secondly the vast difference in replacement rates between land and reef
environments. Aquatic ones are far more robust and vigorous, "bouncing
back" and restructuring often in months at what would take years on
land.
The pertinence of this to aquarists? A few things... the likelihood of
miraculous rates of reproduction in pest organisms... and secondly, the
remarkable tenacity of the life in the frail, changeable bits of water
we call aquariums. |
