Crabs have shells and pincers that can be used to defend itself with. It might be able to fight off predators with its pincers. Its shell is strong and can withstand blows from predators to a limit.

Clownfish always live on coral reefs close to anemones. If you remember Finding Nemo, Marlin always wanted to stay in the anemone. That is because clownfish don't get hurt by anemones. So when there are predators, a clownfish will retreat inside an anemone. Predators can get hurt by the anemone's tentacles and so they stay away and leave the clownfish alone.
