Plastic Sea (Pomacentrus coelestis)
Diver's Lodge House Reef, Lembeh.
This is a picture showing the reality of the Indonesian underwater world: plastic detritus. It is a real problem in Lembeh. Sea creatures make their house in this plastic residues making it harder to remove them without killing them. Bigger species eat them and die from it. A sad sight. I hope one day disposable plastics will be banned from our planet, before we kill the entire sea with this garbage :-(
The neon damselfish, "Pomacentrus coelestis" is a species of damselfish in the family Pomacentridae. It is found in the Indo-Pacific. It can grow to a maximum size of 9 centimetres in length. It occasionally makes its way into the aquarium trade.
