Sumario:Results are presented on the evolution of the seabed in El Hornillo Bay (águilas, Murcia) (southeast Spain) after ten years of intensive floating-cage culture of seabream Sparus auratus L., 1758 and seabass Dicentrarchus labrax (L., 1758), as the system was progressively dismantled, in three phases. Three stations were selected for each one of these phases, as well as one control station. At each stage, changes were observed by collecting data on the sediments' physical-chemical parameters and macrofauna. Although the sediment remained anoxic for more than 24 months after the cages were removed, a rapid increase in biodiversity occurred immediately. The MDS analyses indicated time- and space-based differences within the structure of the benthic community.
