Vivid orange bars and bold white bands make the clownfish a reef poster-child. Hiding among anemone tentacles, it trades cleaning duties for venom immunity. Only 18 cm long at most, it guards a tiny patch with its lifelong mate, nibbling plankton and algae across the Indo-Pacific.

Habitat: The Clownfish can be found in Australia, Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, Japan, Papua-new-guinea, Fiji, Vietnam
