I have been researching Butterfly fish and majority of them have they strange or even unknown diets.
The question I have is there is a large amount of butterflies that have a diet that is primary small coral polyps.
Now, how does this grazing effect a coral? A coral has almost no defence and it cannot move and it's growth is very slow. How do these corals survive in the wild with fish like this around ?
