First, I think you meant moray eels (sorry I had to point that out). There are many reasons why moray eels hide in corals. The main reason is because that's their hunting style. They hide in between crevices until a prey swims by and the eel ambush it, getting it's meal. Also another reason is because moray eels are often nocturnal predators, so they rest in the crevices of corals to rest.
