The coral reef ecosystems that cover our globe provide essential food and habitat to over 25% of all marine life. The parrotfish is a common animal found among these ecosystems and are a crucial keystone species who are responsible for cleaning the corals from harmful algae. The abundance of parrotfish can be related directly to the health of our coral reef ecosystems.

Advocate Apparel Inspired by the spotted parrotfish (cetoscarus ocellatus)

While parrotfish come in many amazing colors and patterns, this print is inspired by a male, terminal phase spotted parrotfish, native to the Indo-Pacific. Considered the most effective reef grazer, parrotfish serve an important function in maintaining the health of coral reefs. In fact, a 2014 IUCN report surveyed the health of Caribbean coral reefs from 1970-2012 and found that one of the most impactful actions we can take to restore the health of coral reef habitat is to protect parrotfish!

If that isn’t reason enough to love these bright and beautiful fish, an individual poops up to 200 lbs of sand a year, a critical source of sediment for beaches! For example, in Vakkaru Island in the Maldives, a 2015 study found that over 85% of their beach sand had been produced by parrotfish!

2nd Parrotfish Reversible Protection Top

Loved it so much, this is my second one. Love the bright pink, and the parrotfish design. My boobs are covered and secure, and free at the same time. Top doesnt stretch out and lose it's shape. Very hot and stylish.

Love!

I recently purchased this top and am very happy with it. I am 5' 11" tall, 175 lbs, and XL fit well. I have a big rib cage. I do not like super tight anything on my chest. This top flattens my boobs, but that is ok, I just need to protect my skin in the ocean and this is another fashionable tool for that. This is not top would not work for anyone with a larger bust.

What a beautiful top!!

I just got my parrotfish swim top and it is very pretty; fits just the way I want it to. I can’t wait to wear it for a workout or in the pool

Also works for flat chests

As the title says, I have a flat chest. Like, no boobs at all (I had top surgery), I could go shirtless if I wanted to, and I also wear rash guards, but tops like this are simply cuter. I just feel better, when I have something on my chest.

And it's reversible! So basically 2-in-1! The top doesn't look empty on me or anything, I can fill it out somehow. It just hugs the body perfectly!

Nearly perfect

Wonderful thick material. I purchased a size small going by the size chart. I should have ordered a medium. However I feel very supported and secure in it. I have a short torso and the bottom edge of the top does roll up constantly.

Oops

My top was to small. So I needed to return it. I was so impressed with how easy it was to return. From the reusable bag to the QR code. I can't wait to get my replacement and take it diving in the Maldives.
