- Info Red Sea clownfishes (Amphiprion bicinctus) in a magnificent sea anemone (Heteractis magnifica). This clownfish species is found in the Western Indian Ocean, the Red Sea, Socotra and the Chagos archipelago. The fish's body is yellow-orange to dark brown. Males grow to a length of 10 centimetres (3.9 in), and females grow to a length of 14 centimetres (5.5 in). Clownfish and sea anemone form together one of the most known symbiotic mutualism. 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 and are unaffected by the stinging tentacles of the host anemone. In a group of clownfish, there is a strict dominance hierarchy. The largest and most aggressive fish is female and is found at the top. Clownfish are sequential hermaphrodites, meaning that they develop into males first, and when they mature, they become females. c/u/n by Poco a poco (talk) 09:29, 24 June 2022 (UTC)

- Support You don't see underwater shots of this amazing quality too much. — Urban Versis 32KB ⚡ (talk | contribs) 16:20, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you Urban Versis 32, I've been improving my skills and equipment in the last years but the big jump has been the area, the Red Sea is a paradise for underwater photography. I just hope that when I upload images from other areas afterwards (we need also fauna from different places) you all are not disappointed because the quality is lower (the water in the Mediterranean Sea or in the Atlantic Ocean is not that clean) or the subjects not so interesting. In fact, in some cases you find similar species in the Red Sea like you do in the Mediterranean, they look similar, but the latter are colorful instead of grey :) This and this is an example of what I mean, same here and here. --Poco a poco (talk) 16:59, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
