Hi Mr. Goldman,

I was reading your recent article, which is very informative, and notice an inconsistence. According to Fig 4., the colonies feed Artemia franciscana showed the most significant growth (diameter wise). But according to Figure 6, the control picture (left side) looks like it's bigger (in diameter) than the feed groups. Am I seeing things or are the picture mixed?

Hi Gophia,

Your absolutely correct. My apologizes for the inconsistency. The 'control' and the 'artemia' photos should be reversed. Good eyes...

Lee:

I'm guessing this is how the photos should be lined up?

Figure 6: Coral colonies in each of the three treatments: a: Control; b: Artemia franciscana; c: Golden Pearls©. Note the substantial algal growth in artificial food treatment compared to either of the other two treatments.

If so, I'll make the necessary correction in the article.
