Predatè koray yo se yon pati natirèl nan yon ekosistèm an sante Reef koray. Sepandan, dansit twòp nan kèk corallivores, tankou kouwòn pikan an etwal lanmè (Acanthaster planci) Ak koray-manje Molisk (sitou Drupella spp. ak Coralliophila abreje) ka rezilta nan refize dramatik ak toupatou nan kouvèti koray. Pèt koray yo ka gen enplikasyon grav pou endistri Reef - sitou touris - ak administratè Coral Reef ka vle konsidere opsyon pou kontwole predatè koray.

Coral predators are a natural part of a healthy coral reef ecosystem. However, excessive densities of some corallivores, such as crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster planci) and coral-eating snails (mainly Drupella spp. and Coralliophila abbreviata) can result in dramatic and widespread declines in coral cover. Loss of corals can have serious implications for reef industries — especially tourism — and coral reef managers may wish to consider options for controlling coral predators.
