Three-band clownfish is the signature fish of the Disney Nemo cartoon.
This fish lives in the anemones, it is immune to their poison thanks to its mucus, anemones serve as a protective house.
The three-band clownfish is hermaphrodite, so it can change sex according to the needs of the inhabitants of the anemone.
We can hear the bull shark is very dangerous because of attacks near La Réunion island.
However, tens of them are living at 600 feet from the famous beach of Playa Del Carmen in Mexico. And there are no attacks.
