People aren't going to remember the things you do. They're going to remember how you made people feel. Be kind, gracious, and appreciative. Dan Winters - Photographer.
Clown fish have a chemical in the slime on their scales that gives a signal to the anemone to refrain from stinging the fish. It's a classic ocean symbiotic relationship in that the clown fish lure other fish into the anemone, thinking they'll have a quick clown snack, but end up as a snack for the anemone instead. The anemone gets fed and the clown fish have a safe haven, as long as the chemical is present. Jacques Cousteau proved this theory by catching clowns, rubbing the slime off their scales, and releasing them back into the "safety" of the bright waving tentacles where they were instantly stung and killed. And now, for a happy-ending comment... sorry... don't have one. 8D Aquariums are tough but a nice shot, Ted.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
Yes aquariums are difficult to take photos as too many people have put hands on the glass and the lighting is generally low. Thanks for the animal facts.
