Amphiprion sebae Bleeker, 1853 |
The sebae clownfish, Amphiprion sebae, is a very rare clownfish found in the northern Indian Ocean, which includes India, Sri Lanka, and the Maldive Islands. They can be very aggressive as they get older, like all damselfish. They can grow to 12 cm (4.7 inches).
Although it is well known for its shared name with the sebae anemone, it is normally found with the saddle anemone.
[edit] In the aquarium
They are recommended for first time marine tank owners.[citation needed] When kept in an aquarium a minimum of 20 gallons of water is recommended.
