Dear readers,

This comment is just to mention that one of the coauthors, Juan C. Restrepo, did actually participate during the design of the experiments. It was my mistake to not include him for that in the author contributions part and we missed that during the last editions. Sorry about that.

I will post a few comments on the role of parrotfishes as zooxanthellae disperses very soon.

Cheers,

Juan A Sanchez
