Fish on the coral reef provide a spectacular display of movement, shape and colour. Only some are suitable for aquarium life.

On the right is a Parrot fish - these colourful fish grow to over 2 feet long and eat rocks for breakfast. Photo taken in the Maldives.

Behind this text you can see a group of batfish. Though they are sometimes offered for sale they require large tanks with top quality conditions and peaceful tankmates. Photo taken in the Maldives.
