Pink skunk clownfish and magnificent sea anemone in the Great Barrier Reef, Australia
Like most clownfish, the pink skunk species can swim safely among the stinging tentacles of the sea anemone. Few predators will risk getting stung in exchange for a clownfish meal so the pink skunks are relatively safe. And that name? It’s called the ‘skunk’ because of the white stripe that runs down the middle of its back.
