Underwater compressed‐air blasting is a novel method developed to control invasive sun corals (Tubastraea spp.). The technique removes coral soft tissue without fragmenting colonies, reducing the risk of regeneration and accidental spread. This approach offers a safer and practical tool for managing invasive corals in natural reefs and biofouling ...
