Photograph by David Doubliet, National Geographic
An anemone and its tenant, a pink anemonefish, look out for each other in the waters of Papua New Guinea's Kimbe Bay. The anemone’s sting warns predators away, while the fish eats parasites and drives off fish that feed on anemones.See more pictures from the November 2013 feature story “Paradise Revisited.”
