East Indo-Asian Pacific. Andaman Sea to NorthWest Australia, Malaysia Central Indonesia and the Philippines. Found on anemones on shoreline reefs and lagoons down to 15 meters.

They are protandrous hermaphrodites (transformation from male into female), monogamous and lay eggs. Males guard and aerate the eggs. In social groups of anemonefish there is only 1 female and 1 or more males. The female is always largest and dominant, and she chooses just 1 male to mate with. Any offspring they have is undifferentiated until the time they turn into males. If the female dies, the male that is highest in hierarchy will turn into a female, choose a new mate, thus creating a new mating couple. All remaining males will go up one rank in the hierarchy.
