Picture of a Nemo Ocellaris Clownfish
Amphiprion ocellaris is also known as the false percula clown fish or common clown fish and can grow up to 110 mm long. However, like many other species of fish, the females are larger than the males.
There are 28 different species of clownfish.
Juvenile Nemo Ocellaris Clownfish have difficulty finding a sea anemone to live in (since they need anemone for survival and shelter). The difficulty also arises in the fact that there exists a hierarchy in each anemone.
Thus, when a new juvenile enters an anemone, it begins at the bottom of the social ladder where it is often the victim of aggression by other clownfish. This aggression from other Nemo Ocellaris Clownfish in the anemone can cause the juvenile to be chased out of the anemone, and left to search for another anemone
