“…The flow-induced reduction or elimination of the diffusive boundary layer surrounding sedentary organisms notably enhances gas exchange (Patterson and Sebens, 1989;Patterson et al, 1991;Bruno and Edmunds, 1998;Sebens et al, 2003;Finelli et al, 2006;Schutter et al, 2010), nutrient uptake (Stambler et al, 1991;Atkinson and Bilger, 1992;Lesser et al, 1994;Thomas and Atkinson, 1997), prey capture (Helmuth and Sebens, 1993;Sebens, 1997;Sebens et al, 1998) and debris removal (Nugues and Roberts, 2003;Box and Mumby, 2007). Thus, anemonefish-enhanced water flow among sea anemone tentacles could provide several types of distinct benefits to the physiology and biology of the cnidarian host.…”
