Rainbow Fish is a children's animated television series adapted from the book of the same name.[1] However, the television series doesn't follow the plot of the book; rather it takes the character and the setting and creates a new story with them. Due to the purposes of the show, some characters were added and others embellished. In the series, the place where the fish live is called Neptune Bay (after Neptune, the god of the sea); the fish attend "The School of Fish". The series has a shipwreck called "Shipwreck Park" (resembling the wreck of the RMS Titanic). The series is produced by Decode Entertainment, EM.TV & Merchandising AG and Sony Wonder.
The series originally aired for a single season of 52 episodes, from January 8 to December 24, 2000.
