🍽️ With less of their preferred dietary corals around, corallivores swam further to find food, holding larger territories with lower population density. 💡Restored reefs recovered coral cover and some fish populations within 5 years, but not coral diversity and all fish populations.

🐡 Corallivorous fish had 𝘯𝘰𝘵 recovered to the same extent - there were more corallivores than on degraded reefs, but still only 𝘩𝘢𝘭𝘧 as many as on healthy reefs. 📊 This is likely to do with coral 𝒅𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒊𝒕𝒚 - the preferred diets of corallivores were corals that were rare on restored reefs.
