Clown Fish

Clown Fish

The clown fish has a symbiotic, or mutually beneficial, relationship with the sea anemone. It catches most of its food by cooperating with its host anemone. The clownfish will leave the safety of the anemone's tentacles and swim out among the nearby reef. Its brilliant colors attract larger fish, who, lured by the thought of a meal, follow it back to the anemone and are stung by the anemone one's tentacles. The anemone then consumes the fish, and the clownfish feeds on the remains.

In addition to other fish, the clownfish also feeds on planktonic crustaceans and algae that live in or grow on the reef. The clown fish also eats away debris and nibbles off the dead tentacles of its host anemone.
