Corals have a number of different modes of reproduction. Most commonly, corals reproduce by budding. Basically a coral polyp splits down the middle, and two polyps result. This happens over and over again. Another common mode is sexual reproduction. Corals release egg and sperm into the water, the egg is fertilized, and the resultant creature is called a planula larvae. This planula larvae is basically just a cilliated ball of cells. It settles sometime later, and metamorphosizes into a coral polyp.
