Wow. Cool and terrifying. Never knew such a parasite existed. Poor clownfish.

Seen the parasite before...it attaches to the tongue of the fish and feeds on what ever the fish is trying to eat.

And it doesnt only live in clown fish..it can be in many other fish aswell. i was fishing in the bronx one time and the fish i caught had one. It looks kinda creepy and disgusting
