A pair of Clown Anemonefish, Amphiprion percula, cavort among the tentacles of their host sea anemone. In a perfect example of symbiosis, the anemonefish aquire immunity to their host's stinging tentacles, which are lethal to most other fish. The anemonefish enjoy safe shelter among the tentacles, and reciprocate by defending their host from other predators. Wakatobi Marine Reserve, Tukang Besi Archipelago, Indonesia, Pacific Ocean. filename: clown94
