The nylon nets with their smaller openings provide a home and protection to smaller animals from their larger predators. In cases such as the Horn shark on the Tuna Clipper, the predator becomes the prey after being caught in the net. It's sad to see, but nearly every living thing in the ocean eventually gets eaten. It would be great to remove every net within days of their snagging, before they become part of the reef. Once nets become integrated to the reef community they are quite a nice sight. The net on the shallower pinnacle at Farnsworth is a good example. It is covered by yellow sponges, anemones and home to hundreds of small fish and crabs.
