Species Overview
Brown Trout
The brown trout is native to European rivers and has been introduced worldwide. Renowned for its wariness and intelligence, it is the ultimate quarry for fly fishers. Larger specimens become nocturnal, feeding primarily on smaller fish.
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.
