What is the clownfish environment?

Clownfish primarily inhabit warm, shallow waters of the Pacific and Indian Oceans, often living in close association with sea anemones. These vibrant fish seek protection among the anemone's stinging tentacles, which provide safety from predators. In return, clownfish help keep the anemones clean and provide nutrients through their waste. This symbiotic relationship is crucial for the survival of both species, creating a unique and thriving marine environment.
