Summary: | Pink Skunk Clownfish, Amphiprion perideraion, is known as protandric
hermaphrodite where it can change its sex from male to female. In order to breed clownfishes in captivity, they need to be paired which means the ability to identify the fish sex is crucial. This becomes the bottleneck for the production of A. perideraion in captivity since breeders have failed to differentiate the sex of the wild fish collected. |
