Dear list members,
I am contemplating an experiment to look at the effects of increased herbivory on Caribbean reefs.
To do this, I would like to move some Diadema to increase densities on some reef areas. But I am
worried that after relocation, the urchins might not remain on the reefs. Has anybody tried relocating
urchins & How might you ensure they remain in the area?
Thanks for your help.
