Yo, Percman! It's great to see that a young dude like yourself appreciates having a good teacher. Here's some (hopefully) helpful info that should assist you somewhat in receiving that "A" you appearantly really want.
Source: Marine Fishes by Scott W. Michael; Published by Microcosm Ltd., Shelburne, Vermont, USA; Copyright 1999; page 254
The Ocellaris clownfish (anemonefish) is scientifically named Amphiprion ocellaris. It was originally identified by a naturalist named Cuvier in 1830. It can grow to a maximun length of 3.5 inches. It is found in the Eastern Indian Ocean and the Western Pacific (this is the range). In captivity, it will eat meaty foods such as mysid shrip, brine shrimp, and even finely chopped table shrimp. It will also eat frozen preparations for herbivores. It is an excellent fish for the reef aquarium. [The following info is word for word.] "Captive Care: Vivid coloration and an endearing personality make this an all-time favorite among coral reef fishes. Wild-caught specimens have a dubious reputation for hardiness, but captive-raised individuals almost always fare well in the aquarium. Can be kept in groups, but one individual will eventually dominate and may pick on the others, especially if space and shelter are limited. Rarely aggressive toward other anemonefish species. Associates with Heteractis magnifica, Stichodactyla gigantea, and S. mertensii anemones in the wild, although it does fine without a host anemone in captivity."
Well, that's all the info I have for you, dude. Hope it helps you out!
Good luck, and keep that positive outlook towards your teachers. Hopefully with a few reports like these, you'll be ready for college.
