- SEA LIFE Malaysia, Aquarium
Discover the lively community of animals that bring coral reefs to life. From dedicated cleaners and busy grazers to fast-moving shoalers and territorial reef guardians, each species plays a unique role in keeping the reef healthy and thriving.
What Makes Them Special
- Reef creatures perform different “jobs” — cleaning, grazing, hunting, and protecting their territory.
- Many species form partnerships, like clownfish and anemones, that help both survive.
- Bright colours and patterns communicate warnings, invitations, or camouflage within this bustling world.
