Abstract Introduction Predation is a dominant force shaping survival of coral reef fishes. Synchronous, nocturnal settlement during low‐light, new moon periods may have developed as an adaptive response to intense predation during settlement. Post‐larval Capture, Culture, and Release (PCCR), where juvenile fishes are released directly to the reef ...
