Clown Fish

Ive decided to do my second blog on the most influential fish in history , the clown fish .

Clownfish , also known too many as "Nemo Fish " are fish from Amphiprioninae family . There are over twenty five different species of clown fish found and documented in the world . Clown fish , depending on species , can be yellow , orange , red and sometimes even black . Though many show white strips or patches . These fish can reach a length of 7 inches . Though most of them barely reach 4 inches.

Clownfish are custom to the warmer waters of the Pacific and Indian Ocean , including the Red Sea and the Great Barrier Reef , found off the Coast of Australia.
Clownfish live at the bottom of the sea in sea anemones and are found in sheltered reefs and sometimes in shallow lagoons.

Clownfish are omnivorous. They eat food such as algae, plankton, mollusks, and crustacea. Clownfish also eat mysids , copepods and zooplankton along with other small invertebrates

The Clownfish share a special relationship with its home , the sea anemone . The sea anemone protects the Clownfish from predators and also supplies the clownfish with food . The clownfishs activity around the sea anemone then retunrns the favour by increasing water circulation and also helps by eatting little debris around the anemone.
