What are the clownfish senses?

Clownfish have dichromatic vision, which means that they can only distinguish between two colors: blue and yellow. They use this vision to find food, mates, and shelter. Clownfish also have a UV-sensitive pigment in their retinas that helps them to see at night.

Hearing

Clownfish have inner ears that allow them to hear sounds in the range of 20 to 1,000 Hz. They use this hearing to communicate with each other and to detect predators.

Smell

Clownfish have a keen sense of smell that they use to find food and mates. They can detect odors from food and other clownfish up to 10 meters (33 feet) away.

Taste

Clownfish have taste buds on their lips and throats that they use to taste food. They can taste sweet, sour, salty, and bitter flavors.

Touch

Clownfish have a sense of touch that they use to feel the objects around them. They have skin cells that are sensitive to pressure, temperature, and pain.
