Aufwuchs is a term used to cover the small animals and plants that encrust hard substrates, such as rocks, in aquatic environments. The name originated as a German language German term literally meaning surface growth or overgrowth , and is frequently mis spelled awfuchs or similar due to the unusual for native English language English speakers ufw combination. Indeed, the correct English pronunciation of aufwuchs can be rendered approximately as owfvooks . In both marine and freshwater environments, alga e &ndash particularly green alga e and diatom s &ndash make up the dominant component of aufwuchs communities. Small crustacean s, rotifer s, and protozoa ns are also commonly found in fresh water and the sea, but insects insect larvae , Oligochaeta oligochaetes and tardigrade s are peculiar to freshwater aufwuchs faunas. Many aquatic animals feed extensively on aufwuchs. The mbuna cichlid s from Lake Malawi are particularly well known examples of fish adapted for feeding on aufwuchs. Examples include Labeotropheus trewavasae and Pseudotropheus zebra . They have scraper like teeth that allow them to rasp the aufwuchs from rocks http malawicichlids.com mw01100.htm aufw .
