However, when cast on the surface, seaweed and kelp magically sprout and grow from the surface, entangling those within range. Any creature within range must make a Reflex save in order not to get entangled. If the save is successful the creature is not entangled but still may only move at half speed through the area.

Those creatures that become entangled suffer a -2 penalty to attack rolls and -4 penalty to effective Dexterity and cannot move. Such creatures attempting to cast spells must make a Concentration check (DC15) or lose the spell. And those entangled may attempt to break free by using a full round action and either make a Strength check or an Escape Artist check (DC20).
