12. Objective Dataset Processing Exploration Analysis Interpretation Discussion
So far none of the results have given answers to which type of aquaria performed best or the overall best corals.
Environmental factors such as temperature, salinity, nutrients, etc. no effect on coral size. 11

Next Steps
I propose using for PerMANOVA my re-analysis so that I can compare the effect of the different types of aquaria used as well as the effect of the different families and genera.
The next step for this study would be to perform the same analysis on the data from October 2017 through the present. 12
