Corals also have a natural fluorescence, which can be seen using blue light and a yellow filter. As you can see in the images below, different species fluoresce differently. All of these corals depicted are juveniles (< 1 yr old).
To learn more, check out the article written by Nightsea, the fluorescence light company that made these lights and filters, about the coral reef restoration work being done at Mote Marine Laboratory (and featuring some of my photos!).
