Corals are much more than just an animal
In fact each coral is made up by thousands
of animals
A single Polyp, that is part of placton settles
down at some point and starts building a colony
- which turns out to be the entire coral.
And this colony builds the home for yet another
organism
different kinds of algae settle inside the
colony of coral and they are what gives it
the color
Corals are amazing masters of Building
They even make up entire island chains
like the Maldives
