A Western Clown Anemonefish (Amphiprion ocellaris) in his host anemone on a reef off the coast of Anilao in the Philippines.
This species of Clownfish is often called the False Clownfish as Amphiprion percula is normally considerd the 'true' Clownfish. It is sometimes impossible to tell these two species apart, and normally identification is based on location rather than visual identifiers.
