Semi Precious Stone Coral

Corals are very small cnidarians, and most of which form colonies bound together by secreted calcium carbonate. They include the most important reef builders, which found in tropical seas. They obtain much of their energy from symbiotic algae known as zooxanthellae, and so are dependent on sunlight. As a result, they are usually found at and near the surface, though occurring to a depth of at least 50 m. There are two main forms of coral, hard and soft.
