# Welcome
**It’s 2021 and there are still millions of fish living in the sea. Let’s take a closer look. The little clownfish – let’s call him Larry – has just hatched. He doesn’t know that years ago he could have had millions of siblings; today he only has his brother Barry. He’s totally excited to discover his home, the beautiful reef.** \
\
**After a short swim, however, he realises that half the reef is dead. Horrified, he returns to the anemone to tell his brother about it – but Barry is already floating at the surface, bottom up, wrapped in a plastic bag. This is just one sad story among thousands every day.** \

**Keep your virtual sealife on fish-tank.io - Let’s get engaged in helping marine life recover.**
