source of food for the surrounding aquatic life. This sea moss has the ability to attach itself to the coral reefs which is when their abilities of invasion are noticed. Once they attach to the surface of the coral they have the ability to endure high wave energy environments. When they are anchored to the tissue of the coral they are able to rapidly divide and spread due to their high growth rates and high successful vegetative regeneration. Once this species invades the coral reefs or the surrounding area it allows for the settlement of epiphytes
