Clownfish #1 : False Clown Anemone Fish



Com.name: False Clown Anemone Fish, Clown fish, Anemone Fish, Clown Anemone fish, Ocellaris Clownfish, False Percula Clownfish “Nemo”
Sci.name: Amphiprion ocellaris
Classification: Fish
Family: Clownfishes-Anemonefishes
Location/Origin: Found in coral reefs of the Indo-Pacific
Description: This clown anemonefish can be recognised by its orange colour with three white bars and black markings on the fins. It grows to about eight centimeters (three inches)in length. One can differentiate between Percula (true) and Ocellaris (false) by their respective colors and patterns. Ocellaris are usually less vibrantly colored, and have 11 dorsal fin-spines instead of 10, as on the Percula. Also the species have different eye arrangements, Percula have bright orange irises, making their eyes appear smaller whereas Ocellaris have grey/orange irises which make the species eyes appear bigger. There is a rare melanistic variety hailing from the reefs around Darwin, Australia, that is a dark black colour with the normal white stripes. Although not common in the wild, they are becoming more and more popular in the aquarium hobby.

Surgeonfish #1 : Regal Tang



Com.name: royal blue tang, palette surgeonfish, blue tang (leading to confusion with the Atlantic Acanthurus coeruleus), royal blue tang, hippo tang, flagtail surgeonfish and blue surgeonfish, “dory”
Sci.name: Paracanthurus hepatus
Classification: Fish
Family: Surgeonfishes
Location/Origin:
The species' range is broad, but it is nowhere common. It can be found throughout the Indo-Pacific. It is seen in reefs of East Africa,Japan, Samoa, New Caledonia, and the Great Barrier Reef.
Description:
The blue tang is of minor commercial fisheries importance, however, it is a bait fish. The flesh has a strong odor and is not highly prized. This fish may cause ciguatera poisoning if consumed by humans. However, blue tangs are collected commercially for the aquarium trade. Handling the tang risks the chances of being badly cut by the caudal spine. These spines, on both sides of the caudal peduncle, are extended from the body when the fish becomes excited. The quick, thrashing sideways motion of the tail can produce deep wounds that result in swelling and discoloration, posing a risk of infection. It is believed that some species of Acanthurus have venom glands while others do not. The spines are used only as a method of protection against aggressors. As juveniles, they require a 40 gallon aquarium, but as adults require a 75 gallon tank. They will eat frozen fish such as mysids and krill. Adults nibble algae and nori. Having more than one in a small aquarium can cause stress, which can lead to injury from fighting. This fish is reef compatible — will not eat corals or anemones.

Angelfish #1 : Bluering angelfish



Com.name: bluering angelfish
Sci.name: Pomacanthus annularis
Classification: Fish
Family: Angelfishes
Location/Origin:
Found in the Indo-West Pacific oceans from East Africa, throughout Indonesia and New Guinea to New Caledonia, north to southern Japan.
Description: It is highly sought after and prized member of the Pomacanthus genus, composed of large marine angelfish. Bluering angelfish can reach up to 12 inches in the wild and often obtain lengths near that in captivity. In the aquarium bluering angelfish are algae grazers but consume fish and coral flesh as well. They are known to eat shrimps and nibble on both large polyped stony and small polyped stony corals. Overall most seasoned reef aquarists do not recommend keeping this species in a reef aquarium due to these habits.

Angelfish #2 : Flame Angelfish



Com.name: Flame angelfish
Sci.name: Centropyge loricula
Classification:Fishes
Family:Angelfishes
Location/Origin:
Found in tropical waters of the Pacific Ocean. Tubataha reef, Philippines
Description:
The Flame Angel is known to be shy upon introduction to an established aquarium (especially smaller specimens) but within a week will gain confidence and is then constantly seen grazing around live rock during the day. Will fight with other fish if challenged for space or kept with similar species (dwarf angels) in a small tank. Some texts advise that this should be a final addition to a tank. It is found in various reefs of Oceania, most common in Marshall, Line, and Cook Islands. The fish is also, although less commonly, found in the Hawaiian islands. In captivity, this species feeds on a variety of food including live brine shrimp, frozen meaty foods as well as spirulina, seaweed sheets and pellets. Easy to feed.
