New case of symbiosis discovered

[Renata Berlińska]

Recently scientists discovered a new case of symbiosis between organisms belonging to different species. Discovered case is similar to the well known symbiosis between Clown Fishes and anemones. Let’s remind: the anemone protects the Clown Fish from most predators, and the Clown Fish helps the anemone by cleaning it, as it eats detritus.

The new discovery concerns two species: Three-teeth Janka (Janka tridentata) and Shameless Fokka (Fokka impudica). Both organisms live on two levels of wooden structure: Janka settles the upper level and Fokka its bottom part. Fokka feeds on rests of Janka’s food, cleaning very efficiently the wooden structure. Scientists noticed that sometimes Fokka picks up the food (especially biscuits) directly from Janka’s tentacles. More research on this phenomenon is needed to state if Janka is sharing her food voluntarily.

Ha, ha! Excellent blog! Thank you for this so early in the morning :-))

[Dee Rance]

Oh I have the same problem here.....

[Yvonne Joerling]

Ha, Ha, Ha, gtreat story:-))

Waiting for further research development! Beautiful girls you have!

Oh I have at close quarters been able to study this as well!
In my case this moved on to the small three-teethed-person opening her food-filled mouth and leaning over the side of the high-chair and in this manner disposing of all unwanted food! Straight in to the mouth of any waiting dog.
This (refined) method cut out the nasty "landing-on-chair-first"-action.
Please let me know if you notice any further development Renata, so that we can compare notes!

Love It! What a hoot!

Super scientific discovery!!! Love the "Latin" names!;o))

[Anna Kazimierowicz]

Very fine story, but the Latin? ( I have read Wilko's and Henk's contention about setter standard and it pass to me).
Sorry Renata, I need to correct: Shameless Fokka is rather Fokka impudens. Impudica means something completely different.So I propose it would be better that very nice Fokka in contact with your daughter will be impudens.
Let her be impudica in future in contact with a nice setter guy to have a lot of small Fokkas :))))
