Abstract: Highlights•3D models captured in situ reveal zooid dynamics in two distinct coral genera.•Zooid morphogenesis and size distribution are conserved properties.•Zooids form coalitions and budding is associated with structural complexity.•Bridging the gap between theoretical and evidence-based research on colony formation.
