clown fish
Striped reef dweller
A clown fish is a small, brightly colored tropical fish known for its orange body with white bands outlined in black.
Clown fish live among the stinging tentacles of sea anemones, immune to the poison—a partnership that protects both.
The species gained widespread recognition from the animated film *Finding Nemo*.
