| Impact Description | Monospecific stands of Cabomba caroliniana can alter predator-prey relationships among native fish. The dense mats of Cabomba caroliniana cause large piscivorous fish to spend more time foraging which reduces their growth rates. Cabomba caroliniana beds are believed to decrease fish abundance compared to native vegetation. |
