(a) Study location of the inclusion cage experiment at Nanwan bay, Kenting, Southern Taiwan. The area enclosed by the dashed line indicates Kenting National Park. The map was created using the package, maps ver. 3.3.0 with the software, R ver. 3.6.1 (https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/maps/versions/3.3.0). (b,c) Image of the inclusion cage experiment: (b) two of the five experimental cage groups, each consisting of three cages for three D. savignyi density conditions on the top of plastic container base; (c) close-up of two cages with 8 indiv. m−2 (right) and 16 indiv. m−2 conditions (left) of D. savignyi. Each cage had 12 experimental terracotta plates (10 cm × 10 cm) fixed on the mesh bottom.
