Groupers are important in the ecosystem as they help regulate the population of prey species by preying on them, which helps maintain a balance in the food chain. They also contribute to biodiversity and the health of coral reefs by controlling the abundance of smaller fish and invertebrates. Additionally, groupers are a vital part of the fishing industry and play a key role in supporting local economies through recreational and commercial fishing.
