Research site located on the northwestern shore of the island of Moorea, French Polynesia (inset).
General water circulation is from the open ocean, over the barrier reef, towards the channel, and then out of the lagoon through the pass (white arrows). We placed 2 rows of 8 anemones (black dots), a Crest Row and a Channel Row. One pair of full sibling fishes was found on Channel Row anemone number 5 (white dot). Two pairs of half siblings were found on adjacent anemones, Channel Row anemones 6 and 7, Crest Row anemones 2 and 3 (yellow dots and yellow arrows). One threesome of half sibs included two individuals in one anemone (channel 5) and one individual on the Crest Row (anemone 5), indicated by yellow and white dots and yellow arrows.
