They don't. They have built up a tolerance to them. Some types can still harm the clowns enough to do damage however . Actually- They are the only fish that do not get stung by the tentacles of the sea anemone. Clownfish have a slimy mucus covering that protects them from the sea anemone. However, if this covering is wiped off of a clownfish, it will get stung and possibly be killed when it returns home to the anemone. The clownfish and the sea anemone help each other survive in the ocean. The clownfish, while being provided with food, cleans away fish and algae leftovers from the anemone. In addition, the sea anemones are given better water circulation because the clownfish fan their fins while swimming about.
Clownfish have a symbiotic relationship with sea anemones. Besides anemones, clownfish donâ??t like many other organisms, and may be aggressive towards them.
The relationship of the clown fish and sea anemone is symbiotic in that the clownfish, having a coating of mucous that makes it immune to the anemone's deadly sting, can swim in safety in the anemone's tentacles, meanwhile attracting other fish as food for the anemone.
mutualism
Clownfish are unique in their immunity to the sting of anemones because their scales are covered by a certain secretion that prevents them from feeling the pain. That is why anemones serve as a good habitat for them; they do not feel the sting of the anemones, while anemones ward off other predators.
