This data is the product of the study published as "Examining functional impact and trophic morphology of small, sand-sifting fishes on coral reefs "

It contains:
Feeding depth count of the two fish species used

Granulometry on the experimental sediment

Gut content analysis of the 8 fish used in the experiment. Measurements of maximum and minimum size of each individual prey item noted.

Feeding experiment count data. ID and count data of meiobenthos (benthic meiofauna) found during the feeding experiment. The benthic community was assessed in 3 replicates for each fish individual at each timepoint. See the methods in publications for details or contact the Ole Brodnicke or Camilla Hansen for details.
