Pink Skunk Clownfish

The pink skunk clownfish (Amphiprion perideraion), also called the pink anemonefish, is widespread across the Indo-Pacific from northern Australia through the Malay Archipelago and Melanesia to Japan's Ryukyu Islands. It is among the smallest anemonefish, with females reaching only about 10 centimeters, and its body is pink to peach with a white stripe along the dorsal ridge and a second white bar behind the eye. It is one of only two anemonefish species, alongside Clark's anemonefish, found on both the east and west coasts of Australia. Like all anemonefish it forms a protected symbiosis with sea anemones and follows a strict size based hierarchy in which the largest fish is always the breeding female; the IUCN lists it as Least Concern.
