Clownfish remain close within the pale tentacles of a bleached sea anemone in Raja Ampat, Indonesia, often called the last paradise. The scene shows how environmental stress can transform a living habitat, changing the condition of the shelter these fish depend on. What first appears delicate and beautiful is also a sign of pressure within the reef ecosystem.
