Clownfish Theme
Tagged under Fish.
Clownfish, also called anemonefish, are tropical fish that coexist with sea anemones in order to survive.
The
anemone allows the clownfish to use it for protection, and in return the clownfish feeds the anemone.
While the best known clownfish are orange with three white stripes, other types can be yellow, red, pink, or even
black, with varying numbers and patterns of white stripes.
One of the most unusual facts about these fish
is that they are protandrous hermaphrodites, meaning that they change sexes in their lifetime. All clownfish are born
male, but mature into females as is needed.
