Anyone of us who is responsible for a small child or who has a younger brother, we have seen "Looking for Nemo", the animated film about that little clownfish who loses his father and lives so many adventures to find him. Surely some laugh you knew how to remove and maybe you enjoyed this animation more than your child. Well, today on the other hand we are going to see something that is not so funny about these little fish.
The amphiprion percula or fish of the anemone, better known as simply the clown fish, is a bright orange fish, with some very distinctive white stripes. They reach approximately 11 centimeters in length and their name comes from the anemones in which they build their nests and spend most of their lives.
In a perfect symbiotic relationship, the clownfish performs a very particular dance through which gently rose the tentacles of the anemone. Once the anemone allows it to live there, each particle of its body becomes resistant to the poison of the anemone.
The anemone protects the fish from predators and other dangers, while the clown fish in return, eats its parasites and keeps it clean.
