Exhibit Animals: Coral Reef

Watch bright yellow butterflyfish, tangerine-hued anemone fish and other exotic animals as they dart about in this vibrant coral reef community. The 10-foot-long exhibit showcases the textures, colors and motion of living corals. An entire world thrives in its cracks and bends.
