One animal that eats coral is the parrotfish. It has a very hard beak-like mouth and bites off bits of coral, eating the live coral animals and eventually excreting the hard parts as sand. Another is the Crown of Thorns Sea Star, which extrudes it's stomach over the coral to digest it. In groups they can decimate an outcrop of coral. The Crown of Thorns is covered with venomous spines which exude a neurotoxin.
