“…While we only considered picoplankton in this study, other important possible sources of carbon for sponges include DOM and DOC [33] , [48] , as well as other forms of POC, from both live (i.e. planktonic organisms) and detrital sources [49] . Yahel et al [32] found considerable DOC uptake (more than 90% of their daily intake) by a sponge from the Red Sea, and De Goeij et al [48] found similar high levels of DOC uptake by several more sponge species in the Caribbean.…”

“…This approach greatly reduced disturbance to the organism during subsequent experimental work. The chambers had inlet and outlet apertures, allowing the system to be operated in an open or closed mode (see Ribes et al 2000 for a detailed description of the system). An electric pump at the outlet aperture forced water through the system at a speed of 0.024 l s -1 during the experiments.…”

“…was also evaluated from feeding experiments. A modified form of the incubator developed by the Institut de Ciències del Mar (Ribes et al 1998a(Ribes et al , 2000 was used to study the diet of benthic suspension feeders. The incubator consists of a chamber of 5 l volume in which the colony is placed, and an empty control chamber (Fig.…”
