Clownfish live in sea anemone because they are benefited by the sea anemone. The sea anemone are also benefited by this relationship. This is called mutualism. The clownfish are the only fish in the sea that are not stung by the sea anemone's long tentacles. Clownfish eat other fish leftover from the anemone. Anemone on the other hand are benefited because they get better water circulation from the anemone swimming around.
the anenome offers protection for the clownfish and the clownfish feeds and cleans the anenome
Commensalism because the clownfish uses the sea anenome (which is un-affected) to lay their eggs in and to live in.
The clownfish, Nemo, sleeps in a pink anenome with his dad.
Clownfish and anenome, pistol shrimp and goby all i know
It is mutualism because the anemone wards off the clown fish's predators due to their poisonous tentacles, but at the same time the clown fish wards off anemone-eating fish, also ensuring the anemone's survival.
getting eaten by bigger fish!! also not getting stung by the anenome. they have to get used to it...like in fiding nemo (: haha
Clownfish typically form a symbiotic relationship with an anenome (a type of reef animal). When they breed they will keep their baby's hidden in the tentacles of the anenome to keep them hidden from predators. To be honest...finding Nemo was pretty accurate in that respect.
Remoras and Sharks Clownfish and Sea Anenome Chimpanzees each bugs of eachother
The sea anenome and the clown fish have a mutually beneficial symbiosis. The anenome provides protection for the clown fish and the clown fish helps feed the anenome by leaving nutrient-rich wastes.
•The clownfish and the sea anenome benefit each other. It has been suggested that the activity of the clownfish results in greater water circulation around the sea anemone. In addition to providing food for the clownfish, the sea anemone also provides safety due to its poison. The clownfish is dependent on the sea anemone for its daily bread. After the anemone paralyzes and eats a fish, the clownfish will polish off the remaining uneaten bits and pieces. In return, the clownfish helps to keep the anemone free of dead tentacles by eating these. The clown fish also helps the anemone get food by using its bright coloration to lure unsuspecting fish into the vicinity of the anemone.
Jellyfish live in bodies of water and like to eat smaller sea animals, such as crustaceans and mollusks. They are able to sting their prey, but are still a food source to some birds and turtles.
No, it is not a prasite.
