Portrait of a False-Clown Anemonefish, Amphiprion ocellaris This host anemone’s amazing golden is unfortunately caused by bleaching. Similar to corals, when the water gets too warm the symbiotic algae in the anemone is expelled. Layang Layang, Sabah, Borneo, Malaysia

Shot of a real clownfish (as opposed to all those fakers out there LOL!). This apparently is the real nemo clownfish, others are various similar anenome fish. This can be bought over at Phoenix which has been set up by the lovely Anne to raise funds for the victims of bushfire.

This picture was taken while SCUBA diving in the Solomon Islands. I am a PADI certified divemaster and I love diving!!! I haven’t been able to go since my brain surgeries, but this picture reminds me about what I love most about diving. My images do not belong to the public domain.

Orange Clownfish (Amphiprion percula) often live in association with sea anemones particularly Heteractis magnifica Amphiprion percula is often confused with the Ocellaris Clownfish, Common Clownfish or False Percula Clownfish (Amphiprion ocellaris) which apparently ‘Nemo’ is based on. Juvenille clownfish use chemical cues released from the anemones to identify and locate the appropriate host species to use for shelter and protection. Telling the two apart is tricky as they have very similar markings: “Source: wikipedia”: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percula_Clownfish

Orange Clownfish / Amphiprion percula

Hehe… ;)

Commonly found in most reef habitats. Highly variable in colour depending on geographical area and host anemone. It is the only species known to live with all host anemones. Widespread in the Indo-Pacific.

This clownfish was happily living amongst it’s host anemone’s tentacles even though the anemone had ‘beached’ – lost it’s symbiotic algae that gives it’s characteristic colours. Fortunately for anemones they are able to capture food from the water with their stinging tentacles. As beautiful as this contrast is it underlies the sad story that is currently affecting the family of Cnidarians that includes anemones and their close relative hard corals. Coral reefs are often regarded as the canaries in the coalmine in relation to climate change. The relationship (symbiosis) between the coral (animals) and zooxanthellae (tiny algae) is both their greatest triumph and weakness. The symbiosis provides corals with most of their food requirements and in turn gives the zoox a well protected place to live. This symbiosis has been so successful over millions of years that it has enable corals to build the only living structure visible from space (the Great Barrier Reef). Sadly this relationship only works in a fairly narrow range of water temperature. When the water gets too hot the symbiosis breaks down, the zooxanthellae are lost from the coral tissues (coral bleaching) and if temperatures remain elevated the corals will die. To date it is estimated that 16% of the world’s reefs have been lost to coral bleaching…...
