= Orange clownfish = ocean acidification effects on smell

As its own paragraph under:

Habitats
The larvae of orange clownfish use olfactory sensory to find predators, and it has been found that increased ocean acidification causes the fish to not be able to differentiate predators from other smells. This allows the fish to be preyed upon much more easily and could mean populations have higher mortality rates. The impairment on larvae’s olfactory senses also means that they are unable to locate their habitats in the reef as effectively in higher ocean acidification that is projected to occur as there are more carbon dioxide emissions.
