California Academy of Sciences: Science @ Home - Philippine Coral Reef Dive
At 25 feet deep and 212,000 gallons, the Academy’s Philippine Coral Reef habitat is the largest living indoor coral reef on Earth.
In this video, see what our divers see as they glide through the warm, crystal-clear water to check up on the reef’s residents.
While you watch this video, think about the three questions below. Share your answers with a friend or family member or just think in your head.
- Do all fish look the same? What are some differences you can see?
- How many colors and patterns can you find?
- Think about the body of water nearest to you. Do you think you would see the same kinds of fish?
Got some science-loving small frys at home? Keep them engaged with an all-new array of themed activity packs created for kids ages 4-11, packed with guided videos, hands-on crafts, and real experiments. New packs published every month!
The mission of the California Academy of Sciences is to explore, explain, and sustain life.
Chances are, your 4-8-year-old has a lot in common with coral reefs: Active, frenetic, and constantly in motion!
