Skomer Marine Nature Reserve (MNR) was designated in 1990. Cup corals are slow growing filter feeders, which are susceptible to changes in water quality and planktonic food supply. Scarlet and gold star-coral, Balanophyllia regia, is a Lusitanian species and Skomer MNR is close to the northern edge of its range in the UK. The purpose of this data capture was to monitor Scarlet and Gold cup coral. In 2015 Skomer Marine Nature Reserve changed designation to Skomer Marine Conservation Zone (MCZ).

In 2002 three transects with 51 quadrats were established at the Wick. Photographs are taken and counts are carried out using GIS techniques (see Burton, Lock and Newman 2002). In 2008 the framer size at the Wick was increased to 50 x 70cm using a digital SLR camera, providing high quality images allowing improved photo analysis.
