There is no doubt that oyster beds are beneficial to smaller fish species (e.g. gurnards and bull rout) and provide a substrate for elasmobranchs to attach their egg cases. Yet various modern sources suggest that oyster beds provide a safe nursery for various fish species, even commercial valuable ones. I never found any proof for this suggestion, is there?
