[Coral-List] Zoanthid (Paltythoa caribaeorum) overgrowth of Coral

[Murdoch, Thad]

P. caribaerum also aggressively overgrows corals in shallow water along
the South Shore of Bermuda. Some feel it may be more abundant than in
the past, although there are no published data on trends at the moment.

Best Regards,

Thad
