Clownfish

Clownfish, also known as anemonefish, are small, brightly colored marine fish belonging to the family Pomacentridae. Found in the warm waters of the Pacific and Indian Oceans, including the Great Barrier Reef and the Red Sea, clownfish are famous for their striking orange, white, and black patterns. They have a unique symbiotic relationship with sea anemones, where they find shelter among the anemone's stinging tentacles, gaining protection from predators while providing the anemone with food scraps. Clownfish are known for their intriguing social structures and behaviors, including the ability to change sex; typically, the dominant fish in a group is female. These charismatic fish are popular in the aquarium trade, beloved for their vibrant appearance and fascinating interactions with anemones.
