Coral Reef Ocean Scene with Three Striped Fish

Coloring guide
Bubbles drift up past three round, striped fish swimming over a detailed coral reef. A tall, bumpy branching coral fills the middle, with two big leafy sea fans beside it, each marked with fine vein lines. Up front is a round brain coral covered in winding, maze-like grooves. You'll also find tube sponges in the bottom corners, wavy seaweed on the left, a few small rocks and a sandy floor. The fish have simple faces and stripes, so younger kids can begin there, while the brain coral gives older ones a patient pattern to work through. Orange and yellow suit the fish, soft purple or teal works on the sea fans, and pink makes the branching coral pop. It's a free PDF, ready for a quick coloring break.

- 2Color the branching coral in the center with coral red, and use peach coral for its lower tips and base.
- 3Fill the two large fan corals on the right with lavender purple for the upper one and soft violet for the lower one, keeping the leaf veins white.
- 4Add the tube corals and small rocks at the bottom with rose pink for the tubes and light gray for the rocks.
- 5Use bright yellow and ocean blue on the striped fish on the left, and light sky blue for the bubble at the top.
- 6Optional: Add a little slate gray shading under the rocks and fish for depth, and leaf green on the seaweed at the sides.
