Fire Corals
Fire corals are marine organisms that belong to the class Hydrozoa. They are not true corals, but are closely related to jellyfish and sea anemones. Fire corals are known for their sharp, calcareous exoskeletons that resemble coral reefs. They are typically found in tropical and subtropical waters, where they form colonies on rocky surfaces or coral reefs. Fire corals have stinging cells that can cause painful skin irritations upon contact, making them a potential hazard for divers and snorkelers.
