Field Notes

Habitat:

Anemonefish are a unique group of fish that live amongst the tentacles of sea anemones. The anemone's tentacles sting and paralyze most fish that brush against them. Fortunately, anemonefishes have a layer of mucus covering their skin that prevents the anemones from stinging them
