#savethefishies Fact #132 💡 The clownfish live in small groups called the school, which is composed of the mating couple and their offsprings. These territorial fishes fiercely defend their homes against other clownfish. There’s also a strict dominance hierarchy in the group of clownfish, with the most aggressive female at the top. If the female clownfish dies or is removed from the group, the most dominant male would turn female and become the head. The remaining males will move up the rankings on the hierarchy. 🐠
