Coral reefs cover less than 1% of the ocean but house more than 25% of all aquatic species. Corals are actually animals, not plants, and are closely related to jelly fish and anemones. Coral reefs help keep the ecosystem clean and healthy by filtering the surrounding water. #CoralReefAwarenessWeek | OdySea Aquarium | Facebook
