Poling Anemones?

[JimJam]

There are three probable explanations.
1. Loss of habitat
2. Over predation or invasive forign species
3. Loss of food source

Are there any other noticable changes to the site? Temp, current, turbidity, etc....?

seasonal variation in population

 

[PeaceDog]

a seasonal variation in population would suggest that we see loads of anenomes in the summer months there, and little to no anenomes in the winter. What makes this lack of invert life so startling is the fact that most of us have never dove that wreck during any season when it was anything less than blanketed in a bouquet of creatures.
