People should know about kelp because it can get stuck in their boat propellers or it in their fishing rods.
Queen tiger fish primarily eat other fish in their natural habitat, such as smaller species of fish and crustaceans. While they are not typically known to eat kelp, they may inadvertently consume kelp if it is mixed in with their prey or surrounding environment.
The leafy sea dragon, a marine fish related to seahorses, is known for its elaborate camouflage that makes it look like floating seaweed or kelp. This unique appearance helps the fish blend in with its environment and avoid predators.
The sea urchin primarily feeds on kelp as its main diet. They play a crucial role in controlling kelp forest ecosystems by grazing on the blades of kelp plants.
Some predators of the Halfmoon fish include larger fish, sea birds, and marine mammals such as seals and sea lions. These animals prey on the Halfmoon fish in their natural habitat, which includes kelp forests and rocky reef environments.
Yes, some species of turtles, such as green sea turtles, do eat kelp as part of their diet. Kelp provides essential nutrients and fiber for these marine reptiles.
fish can swim into the kelp and get stuck.
Some fish do, and some fish do not. Parrot Fish, Surgeon Fish, Blue Tangs would eat Kelp. Sharks would not. Basically fish that are Herbivores (plant eaters) would eat Kelp. Carnivores would not.
Yes, a fisherman should worry about kelp. If commercial fishing nets can get tangled in the kelp and if a sports fisherman lines can be caught in the kelp which help a fish escape once hooked.Kelp helps provide cover for fish, both large and small. Small fish, or bait, hide out in the kelp stringers to hide from larger fish. Larger fish hang out in the kelp to hide from larger predators like seals, and to find bait fish to eat. Kelp can be seen or hidden in the water column due to the flow of the tide.If the current runs in the right direction, the kelp stingers lie out and you can through bait or artificial lures between the stringers. It is fairly easy to pull fish out of the kelp using a 'kelp cutter' rig. This consists of using heavy braided line, such as Spectra, and a short 'topshot' (short 5-6') of fluorocarbon or monofilament line. The braid will cut through the kelp as you pull on it freezing the fish from the stringers.
Kelp forest uderstory:What living thing is dependent on the kelp at this level?How may these living organisms help other living thing survive?
Fish, birds, octopi, and sea otters eats Kelp crabs.

Sea Otters eat abalone which eat the kelp. Kelp provides a safe fish nursery for fry.

To the extent of my knowledge, kelp is a herbivore. They cannot eat any type of animal or fish.
No, a kelp is not a consumer to a kelp bass. Kelp is a primary producer, as it performs photosynthesis to create energy, while a kelp bass is a consumer that feeds on smaller organisms, including fish and invertebrates. In an ecological context, the relationship is producer (kelp) to primary consumer (kelp bass), not consumer to consumer.
