Rock pools

By Gianna
What lives in a rock
pool
There are lots of creatures that
can live in a rock pool such as :
periwinkles,crabs,sea slugs,
anenomes,small fish and
sometimes you may see an
octopus!
How marine life use
rock pools
Marine life use rock pools to
survive.They can hide behind
rocks and seaweed.Because
the rock pools are usually
tidal,small fish and other
creatures can look for food
without a wave hitting them.

Periwinkles and other shell
fish will use the rocks for
moving around safely as well
as for looking for food.
How water interacts
with rock pools
When the tidal water comes in,it
fills the rock pools and lets the
big fish eat around the
rocks.When the tide goes back
out again,it takes the big fish
back and leaves new water that
will have new food for the little
animals.
