Finding Nemo

Markin and Coral, two clown fish, lay their eggs in their new home on the Great Barrier Reef. But a barracuda attacks and knocks Marllin unconscious and when he awakes all his family have been eaten, except one egg from which hatches his only son, Nemo. Marlin is a little overprotective and embarrasses Nemo on a school trip to the 'drop off', so Nemo swims out to prove he isn't scared and is captured by a scuba diver. The rest of the story centres on Marlin's adventures across the ocean as he seeks to retrieve his son. Early on he meets Dory, a Blue Tang with a short term memory loss. Together they escape from three (vegetarian?) sharks, a struggle with an anglerfish, ride the EAC with a sea turtle named Crush and escape from the belly of a whale before finding Nemo. The story of Nemo, the little clown fish, was first told through the Disney Pixar movie.
