the new(ish) planet of earth series from the bbc has a great show on the reefs, though only about 15 minutes was on corals, it was incredible. Big section on sharks & predator-prey relationships. I teach HS science too, and it's a hit with them.

Coral reef adventure has both commentary (by the people doing the dives) and is backed by music the whole way through. Like I said, it was an IMAX feature film.

I have 3 different IMAX DVDs, and this one is definitely my fav, lots of cool shots and music through out from Crosby, Stills, and Nash.
The title of mine is MaCGillivray Freeman's Coral Reef Adventure HTH

The best one I have ever seen is a show on Discovery HD called
"Equator" Reefs of Riches. It is AMAZING!!!!
It it from Raja Ampat in Indo-Pacific. Find it and you won't be disappointed
