The communities are stratified from the high-tide line to the low-tide line. Good luck! :)
Organisms on a rocky shore compete for resources like space, sunlight, food, and shelter. Competition is especially intense in intertidal zones where the availability of these resources can change rapidly with the tides.
Between the sea and the shore
The rocky shore is made up of rocks and sand.
Starfish, or sea stars, commonly inhabit the intertidal zone of rocky shores, where they cling to rocks and crevices. They thrive in diverse environments, from tidal pools to the lower intertidal zone, where they can find food and shelter. These habitats provide access to prey like mollusks and barnacles, which are essential for their diet. Their ability to withstand varying conditions, such as changes in water levels and temperature, makes them well-suited for life on rocky shores.
The destination of the Rocky Shore is one of the bays on Motutapu Island.
The near-shore zone comes next on the ocean side and the splash zone is on the shore side.

fish on the rocky shore depend on the wave action for nutrients
Shrimp typically inhabit various zones of the rocky shore, often found in crevices, tide pools, and among algae-covered rocks. They prefer areas with ample shelter and food sources, such as small organisms and detritus. Some shrimp species may also dwell in deeper waters near the rocky substrate, while others can be found in intertidal zones during low tide. Their adaptability allows them to thrive in these dynamic environments.
