As corals also use calcium-carbonate to build their structures, ocean acidification will also impede their growth by corroding pre-existing coral skeletons, whilst simultaneously decreasing the growth of new ones (Smithsonian, 2016). When the pH is lower, the corals have to use more energy to bind the carbonate building-blocks, hence the calcification rate is lower, and they lay down weaker skeletons (EPOCA, 2008). One study showed that, in acidifying conditions, coralline-algae, which build calcium-carbonate
