Best Answer

They are carnivorous omnivores. They feed primarily on zooplankton but also eat bottom dwelling invertebrates, and algae They also nibble on the tentacles of their host anemones at times. Clownfish are protandrous hermaphrodites, meaning that they all mature as males but have the ability to change their sex to female.
