WARM GREETINGS ALL
Living among poisonous tentacles is comparable to setting up home in a nest of serpents. Clown Fish and their anemone choice are inseparable. THIS makes the Clown Fish extraordinary and seemingly risky lifestyle.
The fancy coloring of Clown Fish reminds us of a circus clown, and we are struck by its supprising choice of home among the stinging tentacles of a sea anemone. Not suprisingly, another name for the Clown Fish is anemonefish.
Like many celebrities Clown Fish are not averse to photographs. They always pose for pictures to divers and snorkerlers. The Clown Fish cannot live without anemone. Without anemone's protection they will be at the mercy of hungry predators. The anemone provides a safe nesting site as well as a home.
WHAT DOES THE ANEMONE GET OUT OF THIS RELATIONSHIP?
It seems that Clown Fish even provide their host with energy. They excrete ammonium that helps spur growth in the host anemone, and as the Clown Fish swim among the tentacles they help circulate oxygen-rich water to the anemone. The Clown fish serves as marine bodyguard s driving away butterfly fish that feed on anemone tentacles. At least one species of anemone cannot live without resident Clown Fish.
