Anemonefish are one of the most brilliant ideas ever. This is a False Clownfish (as opposed to a Clownfish which has black outlines to the white stripes; see the upcoming video). Nemo was a regular Clownfish. The natural history of anemonefish is amazing - they live their lives in or very close to an anemone and are safe from the stinging. There is one female; if she dies, the alpha male changes sex into a female and the next male moves up. BTW anemone are animals, not plants.
