Leather Corals

Leather corals are a soft coral with a rather tough leathery skin. They frequently contain zooxanthellae and therefore do well in bright light. They require currents to help them slough off a milky slime on their surface which is produced to rid itself of any algae or other irritants that may be present on the skin.
