Corella Morphs as a filter feeder ?

Corella Morphs filter feed , but to what level of efficiency ?

Would using them in a dedicated filter feeder zone be advantageous?

I assume you mean 'corallimorphs'?

IMHO, probably not nearly efficient enough to make it worth a dedicated zone. But if you have the room, they can't hurt.

Ah, so that's the correct spelling; thanks.

Anyway, I have them & wondered if they would be useful in the purpose of filter feeding. And you're most likely correct,,,,probably not really.
