The relationship between anemonefish and their host sea anemones is not random and instead is highly nested in structure. [9] P. biaculeatus is highly specialised with only one species anemone host, Entacmaea quadricolor bubble-tip anemone, [5] predominantly with the solitary form.

The remaining males move up a rank in the hierarchy. Clownfish live in a hierarchy, like hyenas, except smaller and based on size not sex, and order of joining/birth. [citation needed] Anemonefish lay eggs on any flat surface close to their host anemones. In the wild, anemonefish spawn around the time of the full moon.
The sea anemone protects the clownfish from predators, as well as providing food through the scraps left from the anemone's meals and occasional dead anemone tentacles. In return, the clownfish defends the anemone from its predators, and parasites. [3] Clownfish are small-sized, 10–18 centimetres (3.9–7.1 in), and depending on species, they ...

Both hardy and attractive, they are perhaps best known for their symbiotic relationship with Sea Anemones, a relative of coral. In the wild, Anemonefish are always found with a host, leading many potential keepers to believe that an anemone ...
