The difference is in the name; soft corals have a soft body, with no bony or hard parts. In contrast, hard corals have a hard endoskeleton made of calcium carbonate.

soft corals live deeper water than hard corals because soft corals do not create a hard outer skeleton as the hard corals do.
Stony corals are made out of calcium carbonate, usually don't have pores and are in anthrozoan (stationary) colonies, soft corals are porous, "fleshy", and flexible.
well is that one is hard and the other one is soft.
Soft data is stored on a data disk or hard drive. Where as hard data is printed.
Usually 72 - 76 degrees F, but most corals prefer different temps, when answering this question it depends on if it is soft corals or hard corals, but this is the average temp
a soft floor usually has carpet and a hard floor has wood or other things that are hard.
It is a difference between the hardness, generally expressed in the Mohs scale.
hard cheese is hardend by FAT! and i like soft cheese better than hard cheese. =]
no corals do not catch plankton even though they are an animal Actually, both hard and soft corals do catch plankton. A coral polyp (the individual coral animal) has a mouth surrounded by stinging tentacles. Hard corals stretch out their tentacles at night, when the plankton are drifting in the water. (Soft corals may catch plankton both at night and in the daytime.) The corals use their tentacles to sting the plankton and stuff it into their mouths.
for one, hard coral has less give making it rather hard. Soft coral on the other hand, is mainly comprised of sponges, sand, sea cucumbers, and feather mattresses
soft money is given in unlimited amounts
