Abstract

The tomato anemonefish Amphiprion frenatus belonging to the family Pomacentridae and subfamily Amphiprioninae has very high demand in the marine aquarium industry due to their attractive bright red colouration. The adult A. frenatus is bright orange-red in colour, with one white vertical stripe just behind the eyes, joined over the head, whereas the juveniles are dark red, with three vertical white bands and black pectoral fins. They are very hardy and easy to feed as they accept a variety of food, making them a great choice for aquarists. Usually they grow upto 14 cm in length. However, the females grow significantly larger than the males. In nature, they live in association with sea anemone species viz., Heteractis magnifica, Entacmaea quadriolour, Heteractis aurora and Macrodactyla dorensis. They have wide distribution in waters of the Western Pacific from the Ryukyu Islands, Japan to Malaysia and Indonesia, Indo-Pacific to Oceania.
