Hydrothermal Vents

HV food pyramid
- Marine Snow is nutrient rich dead matter
which floats to the bottom of the ocean and
can somewhat sustain a community,
though not on their own.
- Nutrients tend to stay within the
community, as they are typically detached
from the biosphere due to their method of
energy production.
- The energy pyramid is rather basic, as all
energy is produced by bacteria, whereas in
other biomes, large plants form the bottom
rung. It is safe to assume that most HV's
pyramid will not continue past 3 levels.
