“No better best friend than one that keeps you from being eaten! 🐠 Banggai cardinalfish hide in the spiny spines of sea urchins for protection from predators. This form of symbiosis (basically nature's buddy system) is called commensalism. The banggai benefit, but the urchin isn't helped or harmed.”

Yeah, they've grown up a bit, and you can see the Banggai cardinalfish in all their striped finery in the Living Coral exhibit. #Banggaicardinalfish #tropical #fish #oceananimals #newenglandaquarium #boston #massachusetts #babyanimals #allgrownup (at New England Aquarium)
