Species Overview

Clownfish

The ocellaris clownfish is a protandrous sequential hermaphrodite that lives in a mutualistic relationship with sea anemones. Its mucus coating protects it from anemone stings. All individuals are born male and the dominant fish transitions to female.

Largemouth Bass

The largemouth bass is the most popular freshwater game fish in North America. Known for explosive topwater strikes and powerful runs, it inhabits warm lakes, ponds, and slow-moving rivers with abundant cover.
