Not necessarily. Clownfish are all born males and have mating groups. Out of these mating groups of all men, the biggest one of all of them will change his gender and become a female. This transition can take up to eight months to become evident and when the change is done, the males dance to impress her. when she decides on her mate, they will mate every 12-18 days, hiding their eggs in a protective nearby rock if conditions stay sublime for both of them. In this case, if the female dies, the group will chose the 2nd biggest fish and he will turn into a female. If she kills her mate, another will have to replace him.

Its not very likely but it is possible that clown fish can produce more than once a year.

What is a lifespan of a clownfish?

Well overall clownfish live to about 45-50 years in their habitat. Teenage clownfish will live to 45-50 years. On the other hand clownfish will only like 4-8 years once they are in a aquarium. I would Suggest not keeping any clownfish in a fish tank anywhere. Only because you give them a shorter life, and we would not like it if we were kept in a cage. REMEMBER, once a clownfish always a clownfish. Here is a clownfish joke for you: What did one shark say to the other while eating a clownfish? Answer: This tastes funny! hahaha By Grace
