Coral breeds by releasing all of their eggs into the water at one tome. At the same time, the males release their sperm, and the eggs are fertilized as they float in the ocean. These then develop into free-floating zooplankton, which eventually settle to the bottom and become the more familiar form of coral.

Coralreefs grow because as coral dies it becomes a skeleton to make a new reef.
