Spanish term

colonia de pólipos

Spanish to English Science Biology (-tech,-chem,micro-) marine biology
Hello!

I'm translating a text from Spanish into English about marine biology. This is a documentary and I'm struggling to find the translation for one of the terms: "colonia de pólipos".
I have found lot of texts about it in Spanish, but I can't find a relation between the Spanish term and its translation into English.
I'm giving you a link in Spanish for you to know something about the topic.

I would thank any of your help and suggestions.
Thanks in advance!

Have a nice day!
