Ki deja egziste popilasyon sovaj - resif kote espès yo koray yo te ansplanteman kounye a oswa ki gen istorikman prospere ka kandida bon pou yon sit Reef. Sepandan, kòz degradasyon ak bès pou espès sa yo ta dwe retire anvan restorasyon an kòmanse. Sondaj yo ta dwe fè nan koray ki deja egziste yo detèmine nivo yo nan estrès anviwònman an, predasyon, klowòks, maladi, ak overgrowth alg anvan yo plante plant yo.

Existing wild populations – reefs where the coral species being outplanted currently or have historically thrived can be good candidates for a reef site. However, the causes of degradation and decline for that species should be removed before restoration begins. Surveys should be done of existing corals to determine their level of environmental stress, predation, bleaching, disease, and algal overgrowth before outplanting occurs.
