Field Notes

Description:

Hey we finally found Nemo! This is the ocellaris clownfish, a colorful anemone dwelling reefish. In fact they form symbiotic relationships with them. Something I didn't know is they can come in all sorts of colors and morphs, and are popular in the aquarium trade. Sadly being fish they don't understand humor and make poor clowns.

Habitat:

Found in the Indian Ocean and Eastern Pacific.
