    • The flow in front of each colony, analyzed by video tracking of the traveling speed of natural particles in the water ranged from 4 to 10 cm/s. Over a period of 48 hours, chlorophyll a and phaopigment concentrations were determined in 12 branch tips from randomly selected colonies at each sampling time (first at hourly intervals; after 10 hours, at 3-hour intervals)

    • Feeding on zooplankton was assessed by dissection of 8625 individual polyps from 30 colonies, collected from the reef at different times during day and night and from areas with different flow speeds. Gut contents were extrapolated to daily rates of intake by the assumption of a digestion time of 6 hours

    • The estimate of the amount of carbon from zooplankton was based on log W = 2.23 × log L - 5.58, where W is the weight of carbon in micrograms and L is body length in micrometers. The very low number of zooplankton in the corals' gastrovascular cavities prevented recognition of possible effects of flow rates on capture rates
