[@sadwhispy2302]

I heard that before and I kinda confuse too

[@sadwhispy2302]

@@anon8068 what does that mean

[@ddd8-]

When the biggest female fish dies, de biggest man turns into a woman. Because the biggest woman protects all the others. Something like the beequeen. Pretty interesting

[@ddd8-]

@@sadwhispy2302 that means you have two genders. Or can become another gender like this fish. Even some ppl are born with a vagina and penis. But one side, the female or male is always more dominant.

Absolutely amazing! So beautiful! I had 250 gallon tank and had a variety of fish in it. Several would pair up and bred.

[@emmawoodruff8042]

How does the male turn female?

[@whatsinaname6462]

The male has both the organs called ovotestis but female organs are dormant. Once the head female dies, hormonal signals are sent to change the gender. Once the male becomes female she then chooses a partner to start breeding again.

I thought the clownfish parents never look after their juveniles like hammerhead sharks

[@ziyrns]

So basically, some clownfish can be transgender Interesting

[@PozzaPizz]

It's protandry technically since they carry the possibility to reproduce

[@ahmarcamacho8404]

Well no, because fish don't have genders. And it's not that they change they all have the capacity to do it, for example all clownfish when hatched are all male. The change to female is determined on the demand. Other fish can do this

[@Amarah4600]

They're hermaphrodites not transgender

The image of a clownfish triggers so many fond memories in my head. When I was little, my papa caught one in a bucket for me and my sister to play at the beach. Ended up releasing it though. Though we won't get to recreate such memory ever again, I'm sure my papa is happy up there.
