Barnado The Anemonefish

Clown Anemonefish are small and brightly coloured in orange, white and black.

Anemonefish (often known collectively as clownfish) live within the tentacles of sea anemones. The anemone would sting most fish if they tried to do this, but anemonefish have a special mucus coating that prevents this from happening.

Barnado is dedicated to a friend who made a large donation towards materials for the Coral Reef, without which the project could never have been realised. This former Dr Barnados child likes clowns so the Clown Anemonefish is very apt.
