The star animals of the Indo-Pacific zone
Exceptional tropical ecosystems
The coral reefs of the Indo-Pacific, true underwater forests, host exceptional biodiversity, with colorful tropical fish such as clownfish, surgeonfish, and angelfish swimming among them.
Lagoons and seagrass beds serve as nurseries, where many juvenile species find a safe refuge before growing.
Sharks, like zebra sharks, and stingrays glide elegantly through these crystal-clear waters, while cleaner fish play a crucial role in maintaining the health of other species.
