    Manicina areolata, commonly known as rose coral, is a colonial species of stony coral. It occurs in shallow water in the West Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea, sometimes as small solid heads and sometimes as unattached cone-shaped forms. M. areolata is a colonial coral.
    Manicina areolata meets the majority of its food and energy requirements through its mutualistic symbiotic relationship with zooxanthellae which is a photosynthetic algae that reside in the tissues of the coral. Actually about 90% of the photosynthetic organic products of the algae are transferred to the coral (NOAA ocean service education, 2008).
    Manicina areolata corals start solitary as they are released from the parent, then attach to a substrate to grow/mature, then detach (become free-living), then finally form larger attached colonies. They are usually found co-occurring with other free-living corals such as Cladocora arbuscula, Porites divaricata, and Oculina species (IUCN, 2015).
    Manicina areolata are short-lived in comparison to other corals since colonies usually survive no longer than 30 years (EDGE, 2016). REPRODUCTION. This species is hermaphrodite which means it possesses both male and female reproductive organs in the same organism, and it is a brooder (Nature Serve, 2015).
