The net fire coral is a colony-forming sea animal that looks like coral. It builds hard, lacy or box-shaped structures and lives in shallow tropical seas. Its sting is painful, so it is one to admire from a distance.1

It lives on the seabed at depths of about 0.2 to 3 metres. It attaches itself to hard surfaces, and people can meet it when walking, snorkelling or diving on and around it.1

It is a suspension feeder. Its polyps catch plankton and detritus (small bits of dead material) drifting in the surrounding water, then digest them in an internal cavity.1

  • Forms colonies up to 60 cm wide, and clumps of colonies may be several metres across.1
  • Starts as a flat, crust-like layer stuck to hard surfaces, then grows into lace-like, leaf-like blade or box-work shapes.1
  • Lace-like forms are more fragile and grow best in deeper, calmer water. Box-work forms cope better with harsher conditions.1
  • Has vibrant colours, given by symbiotic algae called zooxanthellae that live inside its tissues.1

Its stinging cells, called nematocysts, carry venom. The venom is fatal to many organisms but has not been found to be fatal to humans. Contact can cause extreme pain and burn-like wounds.1

Its sting has not been found to be fatal to humans. It can cause extreme pain, burn-like wounds and skin irritation that may last for up to two weeks.1

Dintlha

1

Its polyps catch floating food with stinging cells as well as with their feeding structures.1

2

When a colony breaks apart, its structure can change, for example from fragile lace-like growth to thicker box-work.1

3

Its colours come from symbiotic zooxanthellae, which also help it grow and recycle nutrients.1

4

A single colony can grow into a shape that depends on depth, location and how cloudy the water is.1

Ho senya ditshomo

Tshomo: Net fire coral stings are deadly to people.

Nnete: Its venom is fatal to many organisms, but it has not been found to be fatal to humans. Its sting is still very painful and can leave burn-like wounds.1

It spawns in a synchronised release of eggs and sperm (gametes) between April and May, and gametes can still be present in June. The fertilised young drift on currents and settle on the seafloor to start new colonies.1
