The photosynthetic protists that lives inside the tissue of the coral polyp is zooxanthellae. Zooxanthellae is a photosynthetic algae.
zooxanthellae
Coral polyps and Zooxanthellae. They have a symbiotic relationship with each other. The coral polyps provide a home for the Zooxanthellae (a type of algae) and the Zooxanthellae provide the polyp with food and gives the coral its recognizable color. Without the Zooxanthellae, coral bleeching occurs.
Commensalism
Because the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn is on the equator; which is rich in zooxanthellae. Zooxanthellae is required by coral reefs to carry out photosynthesis. Coral reefs can also be found elsewhere, but the healthiest coral reefs are on the equator.

Zooxanthellae are a type of dinoflagellate that live in the "skin" of hard coral. It's a symbiotic relationship where the zooxanthellae are photosynthetic and produce nutrients for the host coral.
Zooxanthellae is microscopic yellow-green algae. It has been theorized that zooxanthellae ( pronounced) zo·o·xan·thel·lae, living inside the tissues of the coral contributes to its brilliant color.
True. Zooxanthellae are a type of dinoflagellate that often live symbiotically in corals. Zooxanthellae are photosynthetic and provide the corals they live in with energy.
No corals doesn't eat zooxanthellae they only eat zooplankton. Zooxanthallae helps corals to live and keeps corals colourful.They live on the coral polyps.
Zooxanthellae. They are tiny plants that make coral.
