Unfortunately, too true.  In fact, I don't believe there are any clownfish
or lionfish anywhere in the Atlantic.  I'll leave the distinction between
clown and anemone fish to the experts.  The Atlantic is my pond.

I've seen some, but in my experience, nudibranchs (nudibrachs?) are not
common in the Caribbean either.  Here in the near-to-the-Caribbean, we see
them occasionally, but nothing like the more spectacular examples I see in
books on Pacific life.
