They are called the rainforests of the sea because they are the largest producers of oxygen in the ocean. If coral reefs become increasingly fewer, many species will begin to become extinct not only due to the loss of their natural habitat, but also due to the dramatic decline in oxygen. Many of the fish dishes you consume would become a memory and fish would become a very expensive luxury if coral reefs disappeared. When the coral reef disappears it would mean the loss of an ecosystem, a loss of biodiversity and, of course, you will no longer be able to experience any of the benefits.
