The way things are in natural conditions is the realized niche where Chthamalus could have a larger population number but the Balanus are competing with resources so they are not reaching their potential. ...

Habitat conservation
Habitat conservation is a land management practice that seeks to conserve, protect and restore habitat areas for wild plants and animals, especially conservation reliant species, and prevent their extinction, fragmentation or reduction in range. It is a priority of many groups that cannot be easily characterized in terms of any one ideology.
